The article discusses allegations of corruption surrounding W. Biswas, the longtime managing director of the Maritime Bank of Bangladesh. It notes that at age 70, he remains in the position despite the bank's retirement age being 65. Questions are raised about his control over the bank and its funds, as well as his involvement with over 30 affiliated organizations. Concerns are also expressed about large loans provided to companies owned by Biswas or his relatives from the bank's accounts.
