A Dhaka court today set July 13 for submitting
probe report in a graft case filed against former chief justice Surendra
Kumar Sinha by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).
Dhaka Metropolitan Sessions Judge Asaduzzaman set the date as investigation
agency Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) couldn't submit the report today.
On October 10, 2021, ACC deputy director Md Gulshan Anwar filed the case
against Sinha for amassing wealth of Taka 7.14 crore on his brother and
relative's names through misuse of power, later transferring and handing over
the money.
The ACC in its probe found that the former chief justice paid Taka 75 lakh to
Rajuk against a plot in Uttara and raised a nine-floor apartment complex on
it at a cost of Taka 6.31 crore.
The anti-graft body however, said that they did not find any legal source of
earning for the money used in buying the plot and developing the apartment
complex.
