BOGRA, Sept 7 (UNB): Anti-corruption Commission (ACC) has filed a case against former Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) lawmaker Helaluzzaman Talukder Lalu and his wife for concealing their wealth information.
Assistant Director of ACC Bogra office Shish Kumar Kundu Thursday night filed the case with Sadar thana against Lalu and his wife Shamsunnahar Zaman.
In his complaint, the ACC official said that Lalu and his wife illegally earned money and property worth about Tk 18.6 million (1.86 crore). But, they did not mention the amount in their wealth statement submitted to the ACC.
