The High Court on Tuesday has directed the authorities concerned to arrest two officials of AB Bank within 24 hours for not complying with the court order.
The two officials are AVP Aminul Islam of the bank’s head office and Satkhira branch manager.
An HC bench comprising Justice Abu Taher Md Saifur Rahman and Justice AKM Zahirul Hoque passed the order.
Gulshan police station in Dhaka and Satkhira sadar police station have been ordered to arrest the duo and produce them before the court on June 5.
Lawyer Earul Islam stood for the writ petitioner while deputy attorney general Wais Al Haruni represented the state.
According to the case statement, Safiur Rahman, owner of Safi Enterprise in Satkhira, had taken a loan from the AB Bank Satkhira branch.
After several months, he wanted a bank statement from the branch over the loan. But the bank refused him to give the statement. He later filed a writ petition with the High Court seeking its directive to provide the statement.
