Ruling Bangladesh Awami League (AL) general secretary Obaidul Quader on Sunday said the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) will investigate the “allegation of siphoning money by Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) chairperson Khaleda Zia and her family members”.
“Different media outlets have reported that Khaleda Zia has siphoned money to 12 countries,” claimed Quader while speaking at a discussion meeting in the capital.
AL’s volunteers’ wing Swechchhasebak League organised the discussion at capital’s Bangabandhu Avenue marking the Victory Day.
Also the road transport and bridges minister, Quader said the media’s responsibility is to investigate the allegation of money laundering by the Zia family.
“Prime minister Sheikh Hasina didn’t make a shot in the dark without knowing the information,” the minister claimed.
Calling on the ACC to launch an investigation into the allegation, the minister said, “I’ve called on the ACC [to launch the investigation]. ACC must carry out an investigation based on the allegation.”
The AL general secretary alleged that words of democracy don’t fit in the mouth of BNP.http://en.prothom-alo.com/bangladesh/news/167728/ACC-to-investigate-allegation-of-money-laundering
