A Dhaka court has ordered the arrest of former minister Rashed Khan Menon in a corruption case related to teacher recruitment at the capital’s Wills Little Flower School and College. The order was issued on Wednesday by Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Shahjahan Kabir, following a petition from the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). The ACC’s public prosecutor Mir Ahmed Ali Salam confirmed the court’s decision. The case was filed on December 22 last year, accusing Menon and 19 others of irregularities and fraud in the recruitment process.
According to the case, an illegal recruitment board was formed without the authority of the special governing committee, excluding required representatives from the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education. Candidates without the mandatory NTRCA certificate were allowed to apply, and the top scorer in the written test was denied participation in the oral exam. Appointment and joining letters were issued before the recruitment process was completed.
Menon, president of the Workers Party, was previously arrested by police on August 22, 2024, and remains in custody.
