ACC seeks wealth info from 3 MPs, families

 

The Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) sent notices to three ruling party MPs and their four family members seeking wealth statements following the allegations of illegal wealth accumulation.

 

The Commission on Monday served seven separate notices asking them to submit their wealth statements to the ACC within the stipulated date, ACC public relations officer Pranab Kumar Bhattacharya told UNB.

 

The anti-graft body sought wealth statements from former Health Minister Dr AFM Ruhal Haque, his wife Ila Haque and son Ziaul Haque; former State Minister for Water Resources M Mahbubur Rahman and his wife Priti Haider; and Enamul Haque, MP (Rajshahi-4) and his wife Tahura Haque.

 

Earlier, in January 2013, the ACC launched probes into the allegations of unusual wealth accumulation by the seven politicians.

 

ACC inquiry officers are conducting probes into the graft allegation against former Health Minister Dr AFM Ruhal Haque, former State Minister for Housing and Public Works Abdul Mannan Khan, former State Minister for Water Resources M Mahbubur Rahman, Enamul Haque, MP (Rajshahi-4), Abdur Rahman Bodi, MP (Ukhia-Teknaf), Aslamul Haque, MP (Dhaka-14), and Abdul Jabbar, former MP (Satkhira-2).
