The current in the circuit are assumed as shown in the fig.

Applying $KVL$ along the loop $ABDA$, we get

$-6i_1 -3 i_2 + 15 = 0$   or   $2i_1 + i_2 = 5$  …..  $(i)$

Applying $KVL$ along the loop $BCDB$, we get

$-3(i_1 -i_2) -30 + 3i_2 = 0$   or   $-i_1 + 2i_2 = 10$  …..  $(ii)$

Solving equation $(i)$ and $(ii)$ for $i_2$, we get $i_2 = 5\, A$.
