ACC to quiz six ex-secys in Gatco case

The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) will quiz former six secretaries, including ex-cabinet secretary and PSC Chairman Sa'dat Hossain, tomorrow in connection with the container handling case filed against Khaleda Zia.
Sources said ACC Deputy Director Jahirul Huda issued letters on Thursday to the former secretaries to appear before the three-member investigation team.
Those summoned to the commission also include former information secretary Mirza Tasadduk Hossain Beg, former Implementation Monitoring and Evaluation Department secretary Manik Lal Samaddar, former communications secretary Nazrul Islam, former finance secretary Dr Zakir Hossain Khan, deputy secretary of the communications ministry ATKM Ismail and former additional secretary of the Prime Minister's Office Nurul Islam.
On September 2, ACC Deputy Director Golam Shahriar Chowdhury filed the case against BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia, her younger son Arafat Rahman Koko and 11 others for alleged irregularities in awarding the container-handling contract to a particular company.
