The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on Tuesday filed a case against the former deputy general manager (DGM) of Sonali Bank, Pradip Kumar Sharma, in connection with fake freedom fighter's certificate scam, reports UNB.
ACC filed the case against the accused with Dhaka coordinated office-1.
The Sonali Bank DGM will be accused, according to ACC, as he took up a job in the bank showing fake freedom fighter's certificate and received all of the facilities from the government.
The ACC conducted an investigation against the former official and found the allegations against him in 2015 to be true.
The ACC investigation officer (IO) submitted reports accusing him and suggested that a corruption case should be filed against the ex-official.
Pradip Kumar Sharma was under ACC scanner since November 2014.
He joined the service in 1984 and withdrew a total of Tk 15.7 million (1 crore 57 lakh) for his salary, allowance, and festival bonuses.
