Narendra Kumar Sinha has testified against his brother the former chief justice Surendra Kumar Sinha in a case that involves embezzlement of Tk 40 million in credit from The Farmers Bank. SK Sinha’s nephew Shankhajit Sinha also deposed against him in the loan fraud case of the bank, which is currently the Padma Bank, at the court on Monday. Narendra, aged 70, is SK Sinha’s elder brother and Shankhajit is the son of his maternal cousin. SK Sinha deposited the money in the account through Mahbub, according to the case dossier. The national antigraft agency later launched an investigation into allegations that the fund was deposited into Sinha’s bank account, credited as the proceeds of the sale of his house.
