Another 31 graft accused including a police official have applied to the Anti-corruption Commission (ACC) for making voluntary disclosure of information about their ill-gotten wealth before the Truth and Accountability Commission (Tac).
The Tac yesterday heard two more government officials including a Titas Gas employee. But the Tac sources denied giving any details about their identity and disclosure.
The ACC yesterday approved submission of three charge sheets against three people including Partex Group Chairman MA Hashem on charges of amassing wealth beyond known sources of income and concealing information from the commission.
"We have 31 more applications in hand seeking permission to approach the Tac. We expect to forward the files at the beginning of next week," said ACC Director General (Admin) Col Hanif Iqbal at a press briefing at the ACC headquarters.
The 31 graft accused include a police official and officials from BRTA, LGED, forest department, Roads & Highways and sub-registry office. The name of former BNP state minister Maj (retd) Kamrul Islam is also on the list.
The ACC has so far sent 79 graft accused to the Tac after receiving applications from them.
MA Hashem will be indicted for amassing wealth worth about Tk 17.11 crore beyond known sources of income and concealing information from the commission.
Another charge sheet will be submitted against AFM Bahauddin Nasim, personal secretary to former premier Sheikh Hasina, on charges of concealing information about wealth worth Tk 3.61 lakh and amassing wealth worth Tk 22.82 lakh illegally.
Meantime, three foreign experts in money laundering made an unofficial call on ACC Chairman Lt Gen (retd) Hasan Mashhud Chowdhury at his office yesterday morning.
The agenda of the meeting could not be known. Attorney General Salauddin Ahmed accompanied the three experts.
