Script test failing

Testing some old script developed by different user.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/sh
case "$0" in
  */*) cmd="$0";;
  *) cmd=`which "$0"`;;
esac
dir=`dirname "$cmd"`
node="$dir/."
echo $node

below two simple tests are failing, I am not seeing any Control+M characters in the script file and I am not able to understand error from second test.

First test:
Code:
$ ./usernames.sh
-bash: ./usernames.sh: /usr/bin/ksh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Second test:
Code:
$ sh -x usernames.sh
'sernames.sh: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `in
'sernames.sh: line 2: `case "$0" in

I appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance
