A Sylhet court has ordered the imprisonment of Naimul Haque Chowdhury, former acting registrar of Sylhet Medical University, in a corruption case filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). The order was issued on Tuesday afternoon by Sylhet Metropolitan Sessions Judge Munshi Abdul Majid after Chowdhury surrendered before the court and sought bail. The judge rejected his bail plea and directed that he be sent to jail.
According to the ACC’s Sylhet office, the case involves allegations of irregularities and corruption in staff recruitment at Sylhet Medical University. The University Grants Commission (UGC) had investigated the matter in 2023 and found evidence of abuse of power and recruitment irregularities by then Vice-Chancellor Dr. Morshed Ahmed Chowdhury and acting registrar Naimul Haque Chowdhury. The ACC filed the case on April 1, 2024, against 58 officials and employees, including both accused.
The court had earlier issued arrest warrants for all 58 accused on April 25, 2024. The main accused, Vice-Chancellor Dr. Morshed Ahmed Chowdhury, remains absconding.
