The allegation of irregularities in gold preserved in the central bank vault will be investigated further, the state minister for finance MA Mannan said on Wednesday.

"The matter will be looked into," he told newsmen after an emergency meeting with central bank and revenue board officials at the secretariat.

He said there was a clerical mistake in keeping tally of gold.

"The whole system will be reviewed, if needed, other agencies will be engaged to review the matter," Mannan added.

The minister also pledged to take stern action if anyone found guilty.
