SBMCH official sued for bribery

An employee of Barisal Sher-e-Bangla Medical College Hospital (SBMCH) has sued the administrative officer, ward master and 'sarder' of the hospital for allegedly taking bribe from him promising promotion in service.
SBMCH employee Abdul Majid lodged the case with Barisal Sadar upazila magistrate court against Muzahar Ali Howladar, administrative officer, Abul Kalam, ward master and Dewan Kabir, 'sarder' of the hospital.
In the complaint, he said each of them took Tk 5,000 as bribe from 11 sweepers promising promotion and regularisation of their services.
As the matter was leaked, the Directorate of Health investigated this and held up their promotion.
Magistrate ATM Mahbubul Karim issued summons to the accused to appear before court on Thursday.
