News Desk: In the wake of the intense movement by students and the public, the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has launched an investigation into the illegal assets of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who was ousted from power on August 5 of last year.
On Sunday (May 18), the ACC formed an investigation team for this purpose. The team, led by Deputy Director Masudur Rahman, has been assigned the responsibility of conducting the inquiry. A senior source within the ACC confirmed the matter.
The investigation team will scrutinize Sheikh Hasina’s movable and immovable assets as well as her income tax records to uncover the actual facts.
Earlier, several investigations had already been ongoing at the ACC regarding plot forgery, money laundering abroad, and embezzlement of project funds. In the case of plot forgery in Purbachal, the ACC submitted a charge sheet, prompting the court to issue an arrest warrant against Sheikh Hasina.
On March 10, upon obtaining evidence of the allocation of a 60-katha plot in Purbachal, the ACC filed six separate charge sheets against the ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, her sister Sheikh Rehana’s family members, former State Minister Sharif Ahmed, former Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister Salauddin, and 14 officials of the Ministry of Housing and Public Works and the National Housing Authority. The court, taking the charges into cognizance, issued arrest warrants against the accused.
Moreover, during the past 15 years of governance, the ACC summoned ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, former State Minister for Civil Aviation and Tourism Md. Mahbub Ali, and former Secretary of the same ministry Mokammel Haque for questioning regarding allegations of embezzling thousands of crores of taka under the guise of airport development projects across the country. However, no response has been observed in reaction to those summonses.
