RDA cashier sued for embezzling Tk 7.63cr

Rajshahi Development Authority (RDA) finally sued its cashier Ekhlas Uddin on Monday for embezzling Tk 7.63 crore by forging bank cheques for the last seven years. Ekhlas is absconding after being suspended on March 1.

Badruzzaman, law officer of RDA, filed the case with Shah Makhdum Police Station in the city under Anti-Corruption Act of 1947.

Officer-in-Charge Fazlul Haque of the police station said the case would be sent to Anti-Corruption Commission for investigation.

Badruzzaman said two investigations were carried out after authorities in late February found anomalies in expenditure of RDA's bank accounts.

The money was withdrawn by adding extra numbers on the bank cheques after signatures were made, he said.
