The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) is set to carry out a full audit of the power import deal with India’s Adani Group, alongside its ongoing investigation into alleged irregularities in the contract.
a new three-member committee has been formed to examine both the audit and the inquiry.
the team is led by ACC Deputy Director Al Amin, with Deputy Director Muhammad Zainul Abedin and Assistant Director Mahmudul Hasan as members.
the national anti-graft agency’s spokesperson Md Akhtarul Islam confirmed the formation of the committee. During the tenure of the now-ousted Awami League government, Adani Group reportedly benefited from duty and tax exemptions, resulting in alleged revenue losses amounting to Tk 45 billion.
an earlier ACC team had already been investigating the claims.
