The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on Tuesday launched an operation against Abul Kalam Majumder, an accounting officer at the Chattogram Regional Accounts Center under the Water Development Board, on charges of irregularities and corruption, reports UNB.

The operation was conducted from the Integrated District Office, Chattogram-1.

During the operation, the ACC team learned that Kalam has been transferred recently. The team gathered information from his former colleagues and local service recipients.

A complaint was lodged with the ACC alleging that he had bought a flat illegally. The existence of the flat was found on the spot by the enforcement team.

A report will be submitted to the Commission seeking approval for a detailed inquiry against Kalam as the allegation of illicit acquisition of assets was initially apparent.
