The outgoing Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) Chairman M Bodiuzzaman has said the Commission filed the Padma Bridge graft case in 2012 under the pressure of the World Bank (WB).
“We filed the Padma Bridge corruption case under the pressure of WB without relevant evidence and documents,” sources said quoting Bodiuzzaman on Sunday.
Without giving any further clarification in this regard, Bodiuzzaman said, “It was not properly done. We did it only to ensure World Bank’s funding in the bridge project.” Over releasing all the officials from the corruption charge in the Padma Bridge Project, he said, “We have proved the case false after conducting investigation.”
The ACC hosted a farewell reception in the honor of Bodiuzzaman with its Commissioner (Investigation) Nasiruddin Ahmed in the chair.
