6 govt officials claim to have only Tk 3 lakh
Six more government officials accused in graft cases confessed to having ill-gotten wealth worth only Tk 3 lakh to the Truth and Accountability Commission (Tac) yesterday.
Meanwhile the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) yesterday sent another list of 18 persons accused in corruption cases to Tac who had applied to the ACC for disclosing information about their ill-gotten wealth voluntarily.
The ACC, however, did not send the name of former BNP state minister Maj (retd) Kamrul Islam, as the summery report of the investigation was not yet ready. Kamrul applied to the ACC on August 18 for making voluntary disclosure before Tac.
The six persons faced Tac yesterday were from Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (Rajuk) and Dhaka Electric Supply Authority (Desa).
Meanwhile, the ACC has already stopped the enquiry into the wealth statement submitted by Kamrul Islam as the commission is preparing to send his name to Tac.
Kamrul submitted his wealth statement worth over Tk 7 crore after ACC had served him with notice in November asking him to submit wealth statement.
