The Anti Corruption Commission has seized the assets if Dhaka Power Distribution Company Limited (DPDC) Executive Director Ramiz Uddin Sarker.
Sarker’s assets were seized on Sunday (Oct 27), ACC Deputy Director (public relations) Pranav Kumar Bhattacharjee told Bangla Tribune.
On Oct 6, the anti-graft watchdog lodged a case against the DPDC official with its Integrated District Office-1.
He stands accused of acquiring wealth worth Tk 30 million, which is beyond his known source of income. There are also allegations of hiding assets and money laundering against him.
According to the case documents, Sarker hid assets worth nearly Tk 1.9 million and laundered over Tk 20 million.
ACC launched a probe against Sarker at the end of last year. Documents for his assets were summoned in January of this year, while he was grilled by the graft watchdog on Mar 7.
