2 ex-customs officials held for swindling Tk 4.90 crore
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) today arrested two former customs officials in connection with a case filed for allegedly swindling out around Tk 4.90 crore.
The arrestees -- Kazi Rafiqul Islam and Kalipada Das -- were customs inspectors, ACC Public Relations Officer Pranab Kumar Bhattacharya told The Daily Star.
A team of the anti-graft watchdog led by its Deputy Assistant Director Nasim Uddin arrested them in Dhaka in connection with the case filed with Gulshan Police Station in April 2006, he said.
The duo dogged tax worth Tk 4.90 crore and embezzled it, the ACC official said.
