Preface
Corruption is an issue of discussion all over the world. There are corruption incidences in all countries of the world. Corruption also has purview in our country. While Bangladesh is going forward in different social indicators; the common people to many experts feel that corruption, in many ways, is disrupting the advancement of Bangladesh's immense possibilities. It is hindering the country's economic development, poverty alleviation initiatives, infrastructural development, and employment growth. This land has a long history of corruption. Different measures were taken to combat and prevent corruption since it was first identified as a crime. On the eve of the 21st century, Bangladesh was listed as one of the most corrupt countries of the world for more than once in the survey of Berlin based organization Transparency International. It tarnished the image of Bangladesh abroad. In this context, Anti Corruption Commission Act, 2004 was enacted by abolishing the previous anti corruption watchdog of the country 'Bangladesh Bureau of Anti Corruption' on the basis of the concerns and demands of everyone along with the common people, civil society, politicians, international donor organizations and mass media. The independent Anti Corruption Commission was established on 21 November 2004 in the light of this Act. The incumbent Commission is uncompromisingly determined to discharge its duties properly.
The Commission does not hesitate to take necessary legal actions after receiving any information or allegations of corruption. Today's reality is that several cases are lodged against many of the government officials, professionals, politicians, opulent businessmen and other persons of the society on specific corruption allegations. Many of them have already faced penalties in the trial courts. The operation of the Commission against corruption is being conducted strongly. Everyone has to realize that the crime of corruption is very sensitive one. Documentary evidences and genuine witness-proofs are the key elements to combat such crime. The Commission equipoise each enquiry or investigation and on the basis of sufficient documentary evidences and witnesses, it takes decision to lodge cases or otherwise. The social, political or professional identity of the person hardly bears any importance to the Commission in this regard. However, the ACC is criticized for its different enquiry or investigative initiative. We appreciate such types of criticisms, but, the criticisms should be constructive and information based.
Anti Corruption Commission believes in free flow of information. The information flow will be continued to ensure the transparency and accountability of the actions of the Commission. According to the Section 29(1) of Anti Corruption Commission Act, 2004, the Commission is submitting Annual Report of 2014 like last year to the Honourable President. This report envisaged the massive initiative of the Commission in 2014.
The Anti Corruption Commission is working in full swing to minimize corruption to a moderate level in the country in collaboration with all of you. The ongoing anti-corruption drives will be continued in full efforts to be constantly dynamic and effective.

Anti Corruption Commission: Background & About
1.1. Anti Corruption Commission: Background
Corruption is one of the obstacles to national progress. It is putting a barrier to economic development, poverty alleviation, infrastructural development, employment growth of the country. Each scripture has expressed strict stance against corruption. The existence of corruption can be found in the history of ancient India. There are details of the different types of corruption in Chanakya's 'Arthashastra' . Initiatives to prevent corruption are also ancient. The Penal Code, 1860 defined some criminal activities as corrupt practices by articulating provisions of conviction against them. However, before the introduction of the Penal Code, there were provisions for conviction against such crimes in this country. In this case, it can be said that the enactment of the Penal Code, 1860 created a legal framework for corruption related crime in the criminal justice system.
In 1944, the then British Government had taken official measures to curb corruption of public officials by issuing an ordinance. Later, the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1947 was enforced in 1947. The Police Department was entrusted to implement the law on combating corruption. As the desired result was not achieved, in 1957 a separate government department such as Bangladesh Bureau of Anti-Corruption was established by enacting Anti Corruption Act, 1957 to conduct anti corruption activities. Though initially it started as temporary office, the Bureau of Anti-Corruption started its operation as permanent office in 1967. The then BAC did not have legal scope to enquire and investigate into allegations of corruption independently. On the eve of the 21st century, Bangladesh was identified as one of the most corrupt countries of the world in the survey of Transparency International. In this regard, in view of the demand of the common people, development partners, civil society, politicians, and mass media, the Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) was established by abolishing "Bangladesh Bureau of Anti-Corruption " on November 21, 2004.

2.1. Receiving Corruption Allegation/s:
The Commission takes legal measures against specific allegations under the scheduled offences of ACC
Act, 2004. The Commission is unable to take any lawful actions when the allegations do not include the
scheduled one.
2.1.1. ACC's Considerations after Receiving Allegations:
The ACC takes legal actions if anyone lodges a complaint against anybody acquiring illegal wealth and
money mentioning his name, designation/profession and detailed address with the following
information -
+ Immovable property (house, flat, plot, land, etc) along with location, amount,
approximate price, detailed address.;
+ Specific information about bank account, share, FDR, savings-certificates;
+ Registration number/ type of vehicle/s;
+ Location, type and full address of business organisation; and
+ Description of incompatible lifestyle with known sources of income.
The following information is needed if the allegation is for the embezzlement and damage of public
money/assets -
+ Amount and time of embezzled money/ assets;
+ When and how the valuables were embezzled; by belonging to which capacity.
+ The details of the accomplices of the embezzlement and how it took place.
The corruption allegations also can be submitted if the alleged one becomes beneficiary or makes
others beneficiary or incurs loss to anybody else or damages the state's assets by misusing power.
However, the allegations should be specific with supporting information and documents. At least the
following information must be available -
+ Description and time of allegations;
+ Supporting information and documents of allegations; and
+ Name of the alleged person (designation, if available) and detailed address.
After receiving the allegations, the Commission considers the following issues:
+ Whether the allegation is a scheduled offence of the Commission or not;
+ Whether the allegation is specific and informative or not;
+ Whether the period of the offence is mentioned or not;
+ Involvement of the alleged person with the allegation;
+ The detailed address of the alleged person/s mentioned or not; and
+ Importance and purview of the allegation.

2.2 Enquiries
2.2.1. Legal Basis of Enquiries:
Conducting enquiries into the specific complaints of scheduled offences are the principal statutory
functions of the Commission (Section 17(a) of the ACC Act, 2004). Outputs of enquiries are the primary
elements of prosecuting corruption related offences. Sections 19 and 20 of the ACC Act, 2004 confer
special powers to the Commission to conduct enquiries. For this end in view, the ACC is conducting
enquiry related activities through three Wings (Enquiry & Investigation Wing, Special Enquiry &
Investigation Wing, and Pending Matters & Inspection Wing).
Section 35(1) of the ACC Act, 2004, stipulates that the
Bureau of Anti Corruption was dissolved from the date
of setting up of the Commission. Along with the
provision to repeal the Bureau, the enquiries,
investigations or pending approvals of the Bureau came
under the Commission's purview which are executed by
Pending Matters & Inspections Wing under section
38(3) of the ACC Act, 2004.
The branches of Enquiries & Investigations Wing, and
Pending Matters & Inspection Wing supervise field-
level enquiries related activities of the six divisional and
22 integrated district offices.
The Special Enquiries & Investigation Wing of the
Commission looks after the specialized assignments for
enquiry. The functions of the Wing include conducting
enquiries into money laundering and other financial
and commercial matters, holding enquiry into
institutional corruption, trapping the corrupt and other
specialized operations.
2.2.2. Statistics on ACC's Enquiry Operations
The Commission struggles with a huge number of unresolved enquiries from the previous year. There
were 3,121 pending enquiries in 2013. In spite of having those pending enquiries, the ACC took 4,654
fresh enquiries in 2014. The Commission has successfully resolved 3,775 enquiries from a total of 7,775.
Based on these completed enquiries the Commission has lodged 333 cases (FIR). The remaining
completed enquiries have been filed for record. Figure-3 shows Comparison of enquiry completion and
lodging of case (FIR) in 2014.
39
The Prioritized Issues for Conducting Enquiry:
1. Money laundering;
2. Land, land revenue and lease;
3. Bribes (finance, assets and services);
4. Illegal attainment of movable or immovable assets;
5. Corruption in construction works and communication sector;
6. Implementation of development projects and corruption in private sector;
7. Duty and tax, revenue, businessmen/ business organizations;
8. Public procurement, issuance of licence;
9. Criminal breach of trust and misuse of power;
10. Other offences mentioned in the schedule of the ACC Act, 2004.

Figure-4: ACC's Performance in completion of wealth enquiries and filing cases (FIR) in 2014.
Pending Matters Enquiries
The Pending Matters & Inspection Wing of ACC made a list of pending matters of the defunct BAC after it
was abolished. Accordingly, the number of pending complaints and pending enquiries were 7,398 and
2,694 respectively. Altogether, the number of pending matters was 10,083. The Commission undertook
3,262 pending enquiries in 2014 along with 600 pending matters of the previous year. Among these
enquiries, the Commission completed 2,606 enquiries and lodged 28 cases (FIR) on the basis of these
enquiries. Table-6 gives a clear idea about this matter.
Table-6: ACC's performance in completion of pending enquires in 2014
The Table 6 shows that the number of lodged cases (FIR) based on completed enquiries is few. The main
reasons behind it are unavailability of supporting documents to lodge cases, authenticity of allegations,
lack of witness, insufficient support from the plaintiff, death of alleged or related persons, etc. Many of
the evidences were destroyed due to official process but those evidences have been necessary to prove
the allegations.

2.3. Investigation
2.3.1. Legal Basis of Investigation
Conducting the investigation of the corruption related offences is the principal statutory function of the Commission (Section 17(a) of the ACC Act, 2004). The outputs of the investigation are the basic ingredients of prosecuting the corruption related offences. Sections 19 and 20 of the ACC Act, 2004 confers special power to the Commission in respect of investigation. In that regard, the Commission is conducting the investigative operations under three wings. They are Enquiry & Investigation Wing, Special Enquiry & Investigation Wing, and Pending Matters & Inspection Wing which are assigned to look after the investigation related matters of the Commission.
The branches and the sections of Enquiry & Investigation Wing, and Pending Matters & Inspection Wing supervise field-level investigation related activities conducted by 6 Divisional Offices and 22 Integrated District Offices. Besides, these wings investigate the cases lodged by different stakeholders and numerous sources. The specialized assignments for investigation are looked after by Special Enquiry & Investigation Wing of the Commission.
2.3.2. Statistics of Investigations Undertaken by the Commission
The number of total unresolved investigations was 1,836 in 2013. With those, the ACC undertook 1,461 fresh investigations in 2014. The Commission successfully resolved 1,067 investigations from which 484 charge-sheets were submitted. Figure-5 shows the number of investigations completed and charge-sheets submitted and Table-7 provides the statistics of the Division-wise investigations.

Investigations of Pending Matters & Inspection Wing
The Commission completed 397 pending investigations out of 716 and submitted 154 charge-sheets in 2014. Table-11 shows the performance in resolving pending investigations in 2014.
Table-11: Statistics of investigations on pending cases in 2014
Trap Related Issues:
The Commission takes necessary steps to trap people red-handed who are involved in the corruption related offences set out in the schedule. Before paying bribe, if anybody informs the concerned officer of the ACC Head Office or nearest ACC office about any government official/ employee or elected or nominated public representative claiming bribe for any work, the Commission arranges to trap the bribe-taker red-handed. The aim of these drives is to prevent corruption from its source in the country. Table-12 highlights the Commission's performance in dealing with investigations of trap cases in 2014.

2.4. Enquiries and Investigations on Institutional Corruption
2.4.1. Background of Enquiries and Investigations on Institutional Corruption
In order to make the public service providing organisations dynamic, the government has to combat and prevent different irregularities, practices of taking bribes and corruption within these organisations. Corruption usually spreads in different public offices due to delay in discharging duties. People receive various services from public organisations.
The ACC believes that in order to eliminate corruption from the public administration, there were little changes since independence of the country. The high officials of different ministries and divisions are taking stricter measures than before against their subordinate officials and employees to examine the complaints of corruption or administrative irregularities.

The Commission has undertaken several programmes on the basis of the recommendations from
Exchange of Views on anti-corruption held at Upazila, District and Metropolitan levels. Institutional
corruption prevention initiatives are taken in different ministries and departments, directorates,
divisions to halt corruption. In the first phase, Exchange of Views on prevention of corruption is being
arranged in different ministries and offices and divisions under the ministries. High officials of the
ministries and of departments, and divisional heads of the concerned departments and division have
the opportunity to express their opinions.
According to the ACC Act, 2004, the Commission reserves any rights to take necessary actions to prevent
corruption. Since 2008, the ACC has been conducting its enquiries and investigations on institutional
corruption in the country. The Commission has formed several teams with skilled officials to combat and
prevent corruption on the basis of complaints lodged by service receivers of public bodies. The ACC
officials were directed to perform their duties within specific Terms of Reference (ToR). The main
responsibilities of the institutional teams are to identify the reasons behind corruption, to inform the
authority with a view to making service delivery better and to take legal actions of any corruption
related offences revealed during inspection. At this moment, the activities of the Commission to
combat and prevent institutional corruption are being operated in 11 organisations. Each team
comprises three to five members.
2.4.2. Statistics of Enquiries on Institutional Corruption Undertaken by the ACC
The teams formed by the ACC enquired into 181 complaints including previous 174 by unveiling 07
new corruption facts in 2014. Among these, 18 were resolved by lodging cases (FIR) and 27 by filing
for records. Figure-7 and Table-13 provide the statistics of enquiries on institutional corruption in
2014.

news published in several national dailies in this regard. After analysis of the allegation, it is
found that the alleged persons submitted forged export contract/documents for
embezzlement of huge amount of money from Bhaban Corporate Branch, Moghbazar
Branch and Elephant Road Branch of Janata Bank Limited, Dilkusha Branch of Jamuna Bank
Ltd., Motijheel Branch of Premier Bank Ltd., Motijheel Branch of Prime Bank Ltd. and from
Eskaton Branch of Shahjalal Islami Bank Ltd., through Bismillah Group and its associated
companies. The concerned bank managers including officials by violating Guidelines for
Foreign Exchange Transaction 2009, being profited or hoping to be profited, adjusted the
fake/forged accommodation bills to the effect that goods had been exported by the
companies though it was not done. Later on, without showing any objection against 'Back to
Back Letter of Credit (LC)' of Bismillah Group, they assisted directly the alleged Khaza
Solaiman Anwar Chowdhury with others to misappropriate money through corruption,
fraud and forgery. The bank officials committed offences under MLPA, 2012 by issuing FDBP
against fake export bill, opening 'Back to Back LC' against Sales Contract and disbursing
'Forced Loans' from the banks. Twelve cases (FIR) were lodged against the alleged persons
under Section 4 (2), (3) of MLPA, 2012 with several police stations after the approval of the
Commission on the basis of the enquiry report.
Amount of Money Embezzled and Laundered:
In the 12 cases, total alleged persons are 53 and amount of embezzled and laundered money
is BDT 1174.46 crore. Four investigation officers of the Commission already submitted
investigation reports of the cases. Further lawful measures will be taken according to the
decision of the Commission.

2.5.4. Case Study- 04
Punishment against the allegation of accumulating wealth beyond known sources of income
Engineer Mohammad Abdul Malek, Former Superintendent Engineer, Roads and Highway
Department (RHD)
Acting on a tip-off, the ACC itself initiated an enquiry against Md Abdul Malek, Former
Superintendent Engineer, Roads and Highway Department (RHD) against the allegation of
accumulating wealth beyond known sources of income. After the completion of the enquiry, the
Commission lodged a case (FIR) with Dhanmondi Police Station against Md. Abdul Malek and his
wife Ambia Khatun for possessing a fixed deposit of Taka 3,01,00,000, savings of Taka 40,00,000,
five luxurious flats in the capital and several other movable and immovable properties beyond
known sources of income, under Section 5 (2) of Corruption Prevention Act, 1947 and Section
109 of the Penal Code.
It is to be noted that the alleged, Abdul Malek, hid wealth equivalent to BDT 4,41,36,995 earned
from beyond known sources from his income tax return too. Similarly, the total amount of
movable and immovable assets of his wife, Ambia Khatun, a housewife, is equivalent to BDT
2,19,81,504. It is established in investigation that the asset possessed by the alleged Ambia
Khatun came from her husband's illicit income – the assets of both earned from beyond known
sources, which was equivalent to BDT 6,61,18,499. It is mentioned that, most part of the assets
earned from beyond known sources was not shown in their income tax returns. Even, according to
the Government Servants (Conduct) Rules, 1979, Abdul Malek did not take any permission from
the government with a view to accumulating the wealth.
As Md Abdul Malek, Former Superintendent Engineer of Roads and Highway Department (RHD),
committed an offence for accumulating wealth in his own name as a public servant under Sections
5 (1) (e) of Corruption Prevention Act, 1947 and in the name of his wife, Mrs. Ambia Khatun for
accumulating wealth equivalent to BDT 6,61,18,499 earned from beyond known sources under 5
(2) of Corruption Prevention Act, 1947 and Section 109 of Penal Code, A charge sheet was
submitted to the court for trial against the accused under the sections mentioned.
The court sentenced a seven-year imprisonment with a fine of Taka one lac, in case of default, one
year more imprisonment on 02/04/2014 to accused Md Abdul Malek, former Superintendent
Engineer of Roads and Highway Department (RHD), for amassing wealth through illegal means in
case no. 289/11 of Metropolitan Sessions and Senior Special Judge Court, Dhaka. Besides, the
court forfeited the convict's FDR equivalent to BDT 3.1 crore, savings equivalent to BDT 30 lac in
the name of his wife, four flats in the capital's Dhanmondi area and one in Gulshan and a five-
storey building in Pallabi area.
The allegation enquired into and investigated by the then Inspector (Now- Deputy Director) S M M
Akhtar Hamid Bhuiyan.

2.6. Prosecution
2.6.1. Legal Basis of Prosecution Mandate
According to Section 17 (b) of the ACC Act, 2004, the Commission can lodge cases (FIR) and conduct
cases on the basis of enquiry and investigation into the offences set out in the schedule. For treating as
corruption offences, the schedule refers to the ACC Act, 2004; the Prevention of Corruption Act ,1947;
the MLPA , 2012; Sections 161-169, 217, 218, 408, 409, 420, 462A, 462B, 466, 468, 469, 471A and 477A
of the Penal Code, 1860; and Section 109 (abetment), Section 120B (conspiracy), and Section 511A
(attempt) of the Penal Code committed in the connection with any offence under sub-sections (a), (b),
(c), (d) of this Section.
Section 32 (a) of the ACC Act ,2004 confers the sole authority of the Commission to approve lodging
cases (FIR) against these offences to be cognizable. Section 28 (1) of the ACC Act, 2004 stipulates that
the trial of corruption related offences will be done by a Special Judge. According to Section 28 (2), the
Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1958, with the exception of sub-sections 6 (5) and 6, shall be applicable
for prosecutions and appeals of corruption cases. However, in case of any conflict between the Criminal
Law Amendment Act, 1958 and the Anti Corruption Commission Act, 2004 the latter will prevail over the
former (Section 28 (3) of the ACC Act).
The Legal and Prosecution Wing is responsible for supervising the matters related to legal and prosecution
and submit the updates regarding the conduct of anti-corruption cases to the Commission. A Director
General leads this Wing and Legal and Prosecution are supervised separately by two Directors.
The ACC Act, 20004 allows the Commission to have its own prosecution unit consisting of the required
number of prosecutors in order to conduct the cases before the Special Judge (Section 33 (a)). At
present, the Commission appoints separate panel of lawyers on contractual basis to conduct corruption
cases on behalf of the Commission in the Special Judge Courts and the Supreme Court of Bangladesh.
Thirteen-member lawyers' panel who are called as 'Public Prosecutors', is working in the thirteen
Special Judge Courts of Dhaka. Besides, 59 lawyers are working in Dhaka Division, 34 lawyers in
Chittagong, 49 lawyers in Rajshahi, 26 lawyers in Khulna, 19 lawyers in Barisal, and 19 lawyers in Sylhet.
2.6.2. Conducting Cases at Judicial Courts
The Commission got 243 cases disposed of by the Special Judge Courts by December 2014, of which 159
(65.43%) cases were lodged by the Commission and the remaining 84 (34.57%) inherited from the
defunct Bureau of Anti Corruption (BAC). Rates of punishments are 46% in ACC's lodged cases and 33%

2.7. Research, Experiment, Prevention and Mass Awareness
2.7.1. Legal Basis of Research and Prevention Activities
Promotion of values of honesty and integrity to prevent corruption and taking measures to build mass-
awareness against corruption in the country are key mandates of the Commission. Six out of 11
functions of the ACC stipulated in Section 17 of the ACC Act, 2004 fall under the purview of corruption
prevention. To turn these mandates into concrete actions, the Commission has been constituting
Corruption Prevention Committees at the upazila, district and metropolitan levels as well as 'Integrity
Units' at educational institutions. The Commission organizes various events throughout the country and
produces reading materials and posters aiming to sensitize people against corruption.
2.7.2. Corruption Prevention Movement with the Participation of Social Power
Corruption Prevention Committee (CPC):
The ACC has adopted corruption prevention initiatives in order to expedite a national social movement
to prevent corruption with spontaneous participation of people from all walks of social life. Corruption
Prevention Committees have been formed at upazila, district and metropolitan levels in order to create
mass awareness about corruption prevention in every corner of the country. Committees were formed
in 427 upazilas, 62 districts, one metropolitan and 8 regional metropolitans of the country till now.
According to the policies, the District and Metropolitan Corruption Prevention Committees are formed
comprising not more than 13 members and Upazila Corruption Prevention Committees are formed
comprising not more than 9 members. One-third of the members are women, wherever possible. A
President, two Vice-Presidents and a General Secretary will be nominated from the members of the
committee. All the members of the committee are nominated by the Commission and they are
responsible to the Commission for maintaining liaison with Divisional Offices/ Integrated District
Offices. An adult Bangladeshi citizen will be qualified to be nominated as a member of the committee
for a specific jurisdiction. Any foreign national, elected public representative, public officials, activist of
any political party, any insane or bankrupt person declared by court, loan defaulters, persons accused of
any criminal offence or convicted by court will not be considered to be a member of the committee. In
fact, the Corruption Prevention Committees are voluntary, comprising honest and active people from a
cross section of the society including teachers, religious leaders and former government officials.
The ACC spent considerable time in constitution and reconstitution of Corruption Prevention
Committees in 9 metropolitan, 62 districts and 427 upazilas in 2014. Division-wise numbers of
Corruption Prevention Committee in upazila, district and metropolitan level are given in Table-18.

'Integrity Unit'- Anti Corruption Platform for the Youth
It is easier to build a corruption free Bangladesh by instilling attitude against corruption in the present and future generations. In addition to preventing the spread of corruption, the Commission has initiated different awareness raising programs among the students of educational institutions to build a corruption free society in future. The less corrupt countries of the world put a great emphasis on awareness raising programs in educational institutions. With a view to developing a sense of honesty and integrity in the youths in the light of the experiences of those countries and institutionalizing their voice against corruption, the Commission has formed 'Integrity Units' comprising the students of schools, colleges and madrasahs under the supervision of Corruption Prevention Committee. An executive committee of each 'integrity unit' comprises 11 members.
These units work as associate bodies of Corruption Prevention Committees to create awareness against corruption and promote integrity among the young generation. With the assistance of Corruption Prevention Committees, Integrity Units organize seminars, workshops, discussions, drama, debate and essay competition in different districts and towns, which are participated by school and college going students. The ACC distributed thousands of posters inscribed with “Honesty is the best policy” and “We shall not involve ourselves in corruption, nor tolerate it, nor accept it” among the members of Integrity Units. Every Integrity Unit helps students become more endeavoring to build moral character, develop education and health, and conserve climate and environment as part of anti corruption initiatives. A great eagerness and enthusiasm were observed among the students in this regard.
The ACC distributes crests, testimonials and awards among the winners of the aforesaid competitions. Prevention & Mass Awareness Cell is organising different anti corruption competitions in phases as part of student awareness programs in educational institutions across the country. These efforts of the ACC will continue to build moral attitude among the future generation of the country. The Commission will continue its untiring efforts to develop moral attitudes in the future leaders of the country through these programs.
2.7.3. Statistics on Prevention Activities Implemented by the ACC
The Research, Experiment, Prevention & Mass Awareness Wing of the Commission is responsible for undertaking and supervising prevention activities of the Commission. In addition, divisional and integrated district offices are actively engaged in corruption prevention programs in their respective geographical areas.
Efforts to raise awareness against corruption is going on through different programs like anti-corruption rallies, human chains, marches, meetings, seminars, workshops, drama, debate and essay competitions with the help of Corruption Prevention Committees constituted in metropolitan, districts and upazila level. Along with civil society and socio-cultural organizations, newly formed metropolitan, district and upazila Corruption Prevention Committees organize anti corruption rally where people of all walks show their solidarity against corruption.
The role of these committees is crucial in carrying out Corruption Prevention Week (26 March to 1 April of every year) and observing International Anti Corruption Day on 9 December across the country. The ACC Chairman, Commissioners and high officials participate in such corruption prevention activities. These committees receive a lump sum amount of money to organize the events and distribute anti-corruption slogans inscribed caps and T-shirts received from the ACC among the mass people. Division-wise activities of District Corruption Prevention Committees are provided in Tables 20 and 21.

Commission's Foundation Anniversary
The ACC started observing its foundation anniversary from November 21, 2012. The Commission started its journey officially on that day in 2004. Necessary measures were taken to prepare and implement central and field level programs on the occasion of the ACC's foundation anniversary. On the occasion of the foundation anniversary, programs were inaugurated by hoisting national and ACC flags with national anthem sung in the morning. And later, officers and employees of the Commission were sworn in by the Chairman of the Commission at the National Music & Dance Auditorium of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy.
It was also observed at the Commission's all Divisional Offices and Integrated district Offices by hoisting national and ACC flags with national anthem sung. The officers and employees of the Commission were sworn in by the Directors of the Divisional Offices and Deputy Directors of the Integrated District Offices at their respective offices.
Public Hearing
The ACC has initiated conducting new activities like public hearing in government and semi-government offices, with a view to raising awareness about preventing corruption. The Commission believes that public hearings will be considered as one of the tools to make corruption prevention activities more dynamic and effective through empowering common people of the country. In the multi-stakeholder discussion, the sources of corruption, possible actions to be taken to curb corruption by the concerned offices, laws, curbing corruption related offences through changing procedures, etc. are addressed with heuristic explanation and discussion. In fact, the whole scenario of corruption, and steps to be taken to prevent and curb corruption become more visible by setting mutual connection through 'public hearing' in a particular office like other countries of the world. As a result, corruption prevention process gets momentum.
The Commission is conducting public hearing on the basis of ACC Act, 2004 and office memorandum issued by Cabinet Division in June 2014. The objectives of the public hearing are:
As a part of public hearing, a two-day long Information Fair was organized in Muktagacha, Mymensingh from 28 to 29 December, 2014 by TIB in collaboration with Upazilla Corruption Prevention Committee and Upazila Parishad Muktagacha. The main goals of the public hearing were to awaken people about the right to information, to inform common people about the services of several public organizations, to create a bridge between information providers and information expectants. Officers of Sub-Registrar's Office, Mymensingh Palli Bidyut Samity – 1, Upazila Land Office, Upazila Education Office, Upazila Secondary Education Office, Upazila Health Complex, Muktagacha participated in the public hearing conducted by Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO). The common people present expressed their opinions/ questions/ recommendations in written and oral forms and the chiefs of the offices concerned provided them with their expected information service and answered to their questions. The ACC Commissioner Dr. Nasiruddin Ahmed was present as Chief Guest and Executive Director of TIB Dr. Iftekharuzzaman attended as special guest at the program.

manner by considering it policy. The GIZ is working on a priority basis to bring into focus the prevention
activities of the ACC. The implementation of a pilot project titled Justice Reform and Corruption Prevention,
financed by GIZ, is going on in five districts- Rangpur, Comilla, Gopalganj, Mymensingh and Madaripur. This
project will play a special role in adoption and implementation of an Action Plan for corruption prevention
activities along with formulation of Anti-Corruption Strategy of the Commission.
2.10. Empirical Research Undertaken by the Commission
2.10.1. Communication Strategy of the Commission
As an institution, the ACC has its own communication process which is, in fact, prevailing in its
main activities such as enquiries, investigations and judicial proceedings. A plan was needed to
implement all activities of the Commission efficiently as the Commission gives emphasis on
preventing corruption along with combating corruption. And with this end in view, the ACC has
started its activities in preparing communication strategies on certain agenda for the first time in
the light of experiences gathered. In 2014, the Commission prepared a draft Anti Corruption
Commission Communication Strategy for five years, from 2015 to 2019, with the financial and
technical help of the World Bank, Dhaka Office. In fact, it is an outline of activities of the
commitment made by various development partners and for implementing those in anti-
corruption campaigns.
The action plans of communication strategy were prepared from the perspectives of the ACC and its
partners such as media, common people, private sectors, civil society and others. This communication
strategy is not a nominal document, rather an implementable roadmap to prevent and identify
corruption and to make provisions of punishment for the corrupt. The ACC along with the
representatives of development organizations and other partners exchanged views in a discussion held
in a hotel in the capital in June, 2014 to make the implementation of the communication strategy
effective and realistic. Now, the activities are under process to finalize the draft on the basis of the
opinions of different partners of the Commission.
2.10.2. Preparing Strategic Plan of the Commission
Efforts are underway to prepare Anti-Corruption Strategic Plan of the ACC with the technical assistance
of the development partner, GIZ.

2.10.3. Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Risk Assessment
Bangladesh is a founding member of the Asia Pacific Group on Money Laundering (APGML) constituted
in the form of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) for the Asia Pacific region to prevent money
laundering and terrorist financing on a global perspective. As a result, MLPA, 2002 was enacted in
Bangladesh in 2002 as the first South Asian country.
A report prepared in compliance with international standards of preventing money laundering and
terrorist financing and on the progress of its implementation and evaluated mutually by member
countries of APGML was presented in the central conference of APGML. According to recommendations
of the mutual evaluation report, National Coordination Committee (NCC) led by Finance Minister, was
formed by the Government of Bangladesh in 2010 to provide instructions and policies on anti-money
laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures. The ACC was entrusted with the main
responsibility of identifying risks for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures
and providing recommendations to combat risk. Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) of
Bangladesh Bank and Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of Bangladesh Police were assigned as its
assisting bodies. In the light of the report prepared by the ACC and its two assisting bodies and the
report made by International Cooperation Review Group (ICRG) after on-site-visit, Bangladesh was
recognized as Compliance Country unanimously in a FATF-meeting held in Paris in February 2014 and
Bangladesh was excluded from the Gray List. As a process of continuing the trend of following and
implementing international standards on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing
measures, the next Mutual Evaluation will be held in October 2015. Since the report on Money
Laundering and Terrorist Financing Risk Assessment is the pre-requisite of Mutual Evaluation, the ACC,
BFIU and CID as assisting bodies are entrusted with the main responsibilities by the NCC. A working
committee led by Director General of the ACC Brigadier General (Retd.) M H Salahuddin, was formed to
serve the purpose.
The working committee for conducting Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Risk Assessment
collects offence related data and information for last five years from various government offices,
autonomous organizations and regulatory authorities, law-enforcement agencies and intelligence
agencies. These databases are coordinated with the databases of international organizations, media,
research papers and websites of several organizations. Site visit, group discussion and stakeholder
consultation are held with the participation of people from different walks of life such as administration,
law-enforcement agencies, border guard, coast guard, public representatives, journalists, civil society,
and businessmen to prepare the report.
It is noted that Bangladesh will not remain under the observation of FATF if it becomes able to fulfil all
the conditions of the Mutual Evaluation to be held in October 2015, although Bangladesh has achieved
the status of United Nations Convention and FATF standard observing country in prevention of money
laundering and terrorist financing. Bangladesh will be financially benefited in international trade if it can
fulfill the conditions of Mutual Evaluation by providing a risk assessment report and implementing the
recommendations from FATF and APG. Then the LC confirmation charge for Bangladesh will be 0.25-
0.05 percent in place of 1 percent against export. It would be a great reduction in the costs and time line
of financial transactions and investments with the rest of the world. As a result, Bangladesh will be
benefited financially with the flourishing of trade and commerce side by side with this, the
opportunities for foreign investment will be widened. The draft Money Laundering and Terrorist
Financing Risk Assessment was prepared in 2014. It will be reviewed and finalized after the approval of
the Commission.

ACC put emphasis on sending officials in different training programs abroad to enhance their
competence. Besides, the officers are sent to short training courses sponsored by government
departments, non-government organisations and development partners.
3.2. Budget Management
The finance of the ACC is channeled through budgetary allocations determined by the government. The
Government allocates a certain sum in favour of the Commission for expenditure. Once the budget is
approved, the Commission does not need to obtain any permission in advance from the government in
order to spend the allocated money without prejudice to the rights of the Controller and Auditor
General to audit the accounts of the ACC. The 'Finance & Accounts' branch of the 'Administration,
Establishment and Finance Wing' supervises the functions relating to finance and internal audits; and
conduct purchase of the Commission as per public procurement regulations. Table 25 and 26 show the
allocations (Non-development and Development) in 2013-14 fiscal-year.

3.3. ACC's Initiatives to Prevent Internal Corruption
The Commission is active to control illegal practices and corruptions of its officers and staff. Under Rule
19 (1) of the Anti Corruption Commission Rules 2007, the Commission has constituted a permanent
Internal Anti Corruption Committee, headed by its Chairman, to consistently monitor, supervise,
enquire, and investigate into any corruption allegations against the ACC officials and to make
recommendations for taking legal and departmental actions against the corrupt staff. Three
officials/employees received major punishment while one received minor punishment in 2014. Table-
27 shows the number of departmental cases lodged against ACC officials/ employees and their
outcomes.
Table-27: Departmental measures taken against alleged ACC officials/employees in 2014
* Major punishment includes dismissal from service and forced retirement.
** Demotion to lower level of salary scale, withholding of salary increment for particular
years, rebuke, and determination of salary at the lowest level of time scale are treated as
minor punishment.
3.4. ACC's Performance in Monitoring and Evaluation
3.4.1. Performance Monitoring
ACC's performance is internally monitored by the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Branch. Short and
detailed inspections are two monitoring tools to notice the performance of ACC's divisional and
integrated district offices. Director Generals and Directors of ACC Headquarters carry out these
inspections. The M&E Branch evaluates regularly these inspection reports and submits the key findings
to the ACC Chairman. Table-28 provides number of inspections carried out in 2014.

During the short inspections, the Inspectors look into such issues as, availability of officers and
employees, complaints received, enquiries, cases under investigation, cases under trial, cash account,
prevention activities, major lapses/bottlenecks etc. They provide comments and recommendations
against each and every category. Progress towards the implementation of recommendations is
assessed in the subsequent detailed inspections.
In addition to the detailed examination of the above issues, special emphasis is given to office and
personnel management during detailed inspections. This includes office security, office
accommodation, maintenance of attendance book, list of activities of officers, performance
assessment of employees, various registers, and monthly reporting of performance. As part of
monitoring of Headquarters' performance, the Commission reviews the activity of each Wing once a
week. The Director General of the concerned Wing remains present on the specific date and time at the
office of the Chairman to give updates about the Wing's performance and respond to the queries of the
Commission.

5. The Action Plans of the Commission
Despite challenges that the Anti Corruption Commission is confronted with combating corruption, it has
some noteworthy success stories in the year 2014. These successes will act as a testimony to the
enormous possibility of the ACC in the years to come. However, some weaknesses of the ACC have
been identified that limited the power of the body to combat corruption effectively. The following
measures may be considered to make the Commission more effective:
1. The Corruption Prevention Committees are formed and reformed by volunteers, teachers,
religious leaders and former government officials as well as those from all walks of society who
are honest, active, having no affiliation with any political party and are free from any criminal
record. After the formation and reformation of committees, an orientation program will be
arranged at the level of Divisional Headquarters to make them aware of different forms of
corruption and to make people united against corruption through certain activities.
2. The vitality of the anti-corruption related offences lies in completing enquiries and
investigations properly and in time. Time, risk management and assets will be rearranged on
the basis of the demands and recommendations received from the officers working in the ACC
and engaged in enquiries and investigations.
3. Administrative infrastructure is needed to dispose of the cases quickly based on the allegations
from hundreds of victims from various strata of the society. Though the Commission is trying
heart and soul for speedy disposal of these allegations and the cases submitted on the basis of
the allegations within the structure approved by the government (22 Integrated District
Offices), it is quite insufficient to meet the purpose. For enquiries into and investigations of the
allegations and the cases submitted on the basis of allegations, the officers of the Commission
often visit different areas of the country. Offices of the ACC need to be set up in all 64 districts of
the country for speedy disposal of the allegations and cases piled up in the concerned offices
and undertaking corruption prevention activities.
