A Chattogram court has sentenced three former officials of the Bangladesh Telegraph and Telephone Board (T&T) to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment each in a corruption case filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). The verdict was delivered on Monday by Divisional Special District and Sessions Judge Md. Mizanur Rahman. The court also imposed fines totaling more than one crore taka under various sections. ACC public prosecutor Md. Rezaul Karim Rony confirmed the judgment.
The convicted individuals are former senior assistant-cum-cashier Mohammad Hossain, former divisional engineer Md. Kamrul Alam, and former divisional engineer Sadiqur Rahman Khan of the T&T Chattogram office. All three were absconding during the verdict, prompting the court to issue arrest warrants against them.
According to case documents, between January 1 and December 26, 1994, Mohammad Hossain, while serving as cashier at the T&T divisional engineer (building construction) office in Chattogram, altered the amounts on 24 checks and withdrew excess funds from the bank, embezzling approximately 1.66 crore taka.
