Suspended ACC director Enamul Basir denied bail

A Dhaka court has refused to grant bail to suspended Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) director Khandaker Enamul Basir in a case filed over taking TK 40 lakh as bribe.

Judge Sheikh Nazmul Alam of virtual court of Dhaka’s Special Judge Court-4 rejected bail petition after hearing on Tuesday.

On July 16, 2019, ACC Director Fanafillah filed the case with the ACC’s Dhaka District Coordination Office-1 under the anti-money laundering act on a charge of taking Tk 40 lakh in bribes from the suspended deputy inspector general of police Mizanur Rahman.

Basir was suspended on June 10, 2029 for allegedly leaking information, a breach of job discipline.
