The Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) has approved a charge-sheet against BNP leader Shahid Uddin Chowdhury Anee in a graft case.
The Commission at its regular meeting on Thursday approved the proposal for submitting a charge-sheet against him, ACC public relations officer Pranab Kumar Bhattacharya told UNB.
According to the ACC investigation, the national anti-graft body asked Anee on March 24, 2014 to submit its wealth statement before it and as per the ACC directive Anee placed his wealth report to the Commission on April 24, 2014 mentioning his wealth worth Tk36.2 million.
After scrutinising his wealth report, the ACC found that Anee accumulated illegal wealth worth over Tk12.2 million and he concealed wealth of Tk1.3 million in his wealth report, which he amassed from undisclosed sources.
October 9, 2014, the ACC filed a case against Anee with Ramna Police Station in the capital for allegedly amassing illegal wealth.
