Staff Reporter :The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) officials caught a cheat named Iqbal Hossain Chowdhury, who introducing himself as Director of the Commission, earned a huge amount of money. The ACC officials were searching him vigorously on receipt of complaints against him. The ACC team led by its Deputy Director SM Rafiqul Islam arrested Iqbal Hossain in the capital’s Nikunja area. A case has also been filed with the Khilkhet Police Station under Section 419 and 420. The ACC sources said,many people came to the commission’s headquarters to meet Lieutenant Colonel (Retd) M I Chowdhury. They showed his visiting card and wanted to meet him. But they realized that he was fake when they went to the reception of the ACC. Many people also lodged complaints against him. He is neither director of ACC nor a retired Army officer. He is just a cheater. After long waiting, he was caught and he admitted all his criminal activities. He also told the ACC officials that his real name is Iqbal Hossain Chowdhury. He was never in the Army. This was his trick to earn money from the people by cheating. ACC Public Relations Officer Pranab Kumar Bhattacharya told The New Nation on Tuesday that Iqbal Hossain Chowdhury was a listed cheater. The ACC received many allegations against him. But he was traceless. “The ACC will investigate the matter and will try to know the identity of other accomplices,” he said.
