Unb, Ctg
The anti-corruption taskforce is going to file two more cases against detained Chittagong City Corporation (CCC) Mayor ABM Mohiuddin Chowdhury on charges of illegal possession of a generator of the CCC and unlawful construction of a five-storey building.The taskforce raided Chashma Hill residence of the mayor from 10:30 am to 5:30pm on Thursday and checked documents of his assets. They also seized the documents of 23 bank accounts following a court order. An official wishing anonymity said they have also found the evidence of two bank accounts of mayor's son at a Swiss bank. The official said the value of the building has been shown as Tk 73 lakh in the wealth statement of the mayor, but its real value would be Tk 4 crore according to the estimate of the Public Works Department. Taskforce officials said mayor's wife Hasina Mohiuddin could not show them any approved design of the under-construction five-storey building. The city corporation's generator was bought in 1996 and since then the mayor had been using it illegally at his residence. "We are checking the amount of wealth of the mayor and we will get the final report by Sunday," said ACC Deputy Director Abu Mohammad Arif Siddique. A total of four cases have so far been filed against Mayor Mohiuddin Chowdhury on various charges after he was arrested on March 7 this year.
