RE: [ALOCHONA] Yunus welcomes probe



The hastness bdnews24 used to publish  the news with such an unfounded headline appears as to malign only Dr. Yunus. Subsequently Drs. Hasina's taking up the issue and bad mouthing on him appears to have a tie or indication.
DS and PA did not publish the news on the first day pleaing to have the news verified first but I do not think this from these Awami Protectors, in fact they were in a big dilemma how to go against the biggest corporate advertiser.
Same happened to RTV on 7th Dec. in their Road to Democracy show, even before GB's MD could clarifies, show was aborted.
Bringing up the issue after 13 years does prove some malicious intent.
when we knew that GP belongs to Grameen then came the news Telnor refused to sell more shares to Grameen - intent is clear. Telnor now using their own logo instead of GPs green and red today another news appears against Grameen. The head of state personaly taken up the matter quickly to join the bandwagon for destruction of biggest corporate house and world renowned personality of our country.

Yunus welcomes probe

Grameen Bank managing director Muhammad Yunus has welcomed the prime
minister's call for an investigation into allegations that he
channelled foreign aid meant for the bank to another company.

Yunus in a brief, written statement said: "Honourable prime minister
Sheikh Hasina said the issue on Grameen Bank, which was discussed in
several newspapers, should be investigated. I welcome the attempt of
the honourable prime minister.

"I hope that the debate will be over after revealing the exact
condition in front of countrymen following the investigation as soon
as possible," said the statement of the Nobel Peace laureate.

It was signed by the general manager of the bank Mohammad Shahjahan,
and sent on Sunday night. It was said that Yunus sent this statement
fromPortugal capital, Lisbon.

The response from Yunus came hours after Hasina said earlier in the
day, "The allegation against Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus...should be
investigated properly."

"Bangladesh has set many examples. Deceiving people by siphoning off
their money is another such example. This is nothing but sucking out
money from the people after giving them loans," she said when her
attention was drawn to the conflicting comments made by her party
stalwarts.

"One can't but get caught if they play with the money of the poor," she added.

Norway's national TV NRK aired a documentary on November 30 titled
"Fanget i Mikrogjeld" or "Caught in Micro debt", based on which
bdnews24.com ran a report on December 1.

According to the documentary, Yunus transferred the money to Grameen
Kalyan, which was in no way involved with microcredit operations.

Responding to the allegations, Grameen Bank claimed there was no
wrongdoing in the agreement between the bank and Grameen Kalyan under
which it received Tk 3,917 million from the bank.
