The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed three separate cases against three Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) officers for allegedly using forged academic certificates to obtain government positions. The accused are Abu Saleh Md. Musa, Sukanta Kundu, and Sanjoy Das. Two of them joined the BCS Administration cadre, while one joined the Foreign Affairs cadre. The announcement was made by ACC Director General Md. Akhter Hossain at a press conference held at the commission’s headquarters in Segunbagicha, Dhaka, on Tuesday afternoon.

According to the ACC, Sukanta Kundu of the 41st BCS Administration cadre submitted a falsified graduation certificate to the Public Service Commission (PSC), which was later verified as fake. Similar allegations were confirmed against Abu Saleh Md. Musa of the 38th BCS Foreign Affairs cadre and Sanjoy Das of the 38th BCS Administration cadre. PSC’s internal investigation verified the authenticity of the allegations and recommended legal action.

Based on the investigation report and recommendations, the ACC filed the cases under Rule 10(cha) of the ACC Rules, 2007, to initiate legal proceedings against the three officials.
