The Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office said four persons from the ex-administration of the commercial bank were charged with violation of lending rules, defective and fraudulent management of the bank and swindle, IPN reports.
According to the Prosecutor General’s Office, those accused include the former president, deputy head of the treasury division, head of the lending risks assessment division and a member of the lending committee of BC Unibank.
The four are accused of illegally releasing loans to the value of US$16 million and €15 million in 2013-2014. As a result, Unibank sustained considerable damage and a special administration regime was instituted at this bank at the end of 2014.
The ex-president of Unibank was placed under house arrest, while the other suspects are investigated outside prison because they cooperated with the investigation bodies.
If they are found guilty, the accused will serve up to 15 years in jail.
