The High Court has ordered the submission of a report on the investigation into allegations of illegal wealth acquisition by a section of employees of Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (Rajuk).
The court asked ACC and Rajuk to submit a report in this regard by April 5.
Besides, the court has issued a ruling asking why the inaction of the defendants to take action in this regard will not be illegal.
It has been asked to respond to the ruling within two weeks.
When the report published in the national newspaper was brought to notice, the High Court bench consisting of Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder and Justice Khizir Hayat gave these orders on Tuesday.
Deputy Attorney General AKM Amin Uddin was present in the hearing for the state in the court.
Earlier, Daily Samakal published a report titled “Rajuk Cherage Bari Garhi Plot Shop”.
It is said in that report, some are high quality assistants, some are low quality assistants, some are bench assistants. But they are similar in one place. Everyone is a millionaire. Even though the third or fourth class employees of Rajuk are paid Tk20,000-30,000per month, many of them have one or more multi-storied houses and modern cars in the capital. Many have plots, flats, shops.
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has a case against some employees of Rajuk for allegedly acquiring illegal wealth. But the pace of investigation is slow.
When the report came to the attention of the court, the High Court gave an order along with the rule in this regard.
