Supreme Court lawyer Titas Hillol Rema filed the writ petition on Sunday.
The writ requested the HC to seek the audit report from the auditor and comptroller general’s office that has reportedly unveiled irregularities in the appointment of officials and employees of the bank during this period.
It also urged the HC to summon former Basic Bank chairman Sheikh Abdul Hye Bachchu in this regard.
On July 14, 2014, the central bank sent a report to Anti-Corruption Commission about details of embezzlement and found the banks former chairman Bacchu’s illegal influence in all activities of the bank.
According to an inquiry of Bangladesh Bank, about Tk 4,500 crore was swindled out of Bank during six years when Bachhu served as its chairman.
He resigned on July 4, 2014, as the finance ministry sent a letter to Bangladesh Bank to dissolve the then existing committee of the bank on May 29, 2014.
