The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has launched an investigation into allegations of embezzling several crore taka and laundering the money abroad under the guise of operating, repairing, and maintaining the sound system installed in the plenary hall of the National Parliament building. The inquiry targets Zahidur Rahim Jowardar, Chief Executive Officer of Communication Technology Limited, along with others linked to the project.
According to the ACC, Zahidur Rahim is a close relative of former Health Minister Zahid Maleque and served as a cashier for former Chief Whip Noor-e-Alam Chowdhury. The information was disclosed by ACC Deputy Director (Public Relations) Md. Akhtarul Islam at a press conference held at the commission’s headquarters in Segunbagicha, Dhaka, on Thursday afternoon.
The ACC’s investigation marks the beginning of formal scrutiny into alleged misuse of public funds related to the Parliament’s technical maintenance, with potential implications for accountability in government-linked contracts.
