COLBERT COUNTY, AL (WAFF) - A multi-million dollar settlement has been reached in the case of a business executive charged with securities fraud in Colbert County.

Greg Aziz agreed to pay the state $21 million dollars.

Aziz was indicted a year ago on charges he mislead the state about a project to build railcars in Barton.

The $21 million Aziz is paying will go toward investigative costs and the retirement systems.

RSA now owns the half a billion dollar plant in Colbert County.
