Beximco Group protested the public statement of Transparency International Bangladesh and remarks of its executive director Executive Director Iftekharuzzaman.
Chairman of Beximco group Sohail F Rahman wrote to the civil society corruption watchdog’s Chairperson Sultana Kamal.
In the letter, Sohail F Rahman mentioned that sufficient reason to believe” that the TIB’s statement was pointed at Beximco Vice-Chairman Salman F Rahman, who was elected MP in the last general election, the company said. He is also the adviser to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on private industry and investment. Beximco Group enjoyed a long working relationship with the board members of TIB. Such an offensive insinuation was beneath the TIB and its stated values.
Than he continued that Transparency International Bangladesh Executive Director Iftekharuzzaman’s remark is ‘disrespectful’ to the TIB itself and has “also belittled the MPs who have their loans rescheduled and the 60,000 hardworking employees by calling us looters”, Bangladesh’s largest and most diversified industrial conglomerate.
Chairman Sohail Rahman included in his letter that businesses were forced to pay a huge amount of extortion to save lives and their entities during the 2007-08 caretaker government when Salman was arrested on charges of corruption.
According to the Beximco group Chairman Sohail F Rahman, the Bangladesh Bank gave it six years to repay its working capital loan but the company said it may not be in a position to do so due to a liquidity crisis.
