ACC secretary transferred


The government has decided to transfer Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) Secretary Delwar Hossain, a much-talked about bureaucrat in recent times for his role in the ongoing anti-corruption drive.

Sources said Mokhlesur Rahman, a divisional commissioner, will take over charge as the new ACC secretary.

Delwar, an additional secretary, who was appointed as ACC secretary on December 10, 2006, has been made Director General of BCS Administration Academy. Prior to his joining the ACC, he was a member of the Privatisation Commission.

The outgoing secretary during his six-month stay in the commission came into the limelight when he made public a list of top corrupt suspects on February 18 asking them to submit their wealth statements.

Sources said Delwar would continue his work as ACC secretary until the new secretary takes over the charge.
