Nurul Huda, deputy director of the Anti-Corruption Commission or ACC, filed the case with ACC’s Dhaka-1 unit on Sunday, accusing Razzaq and six others in the case. A team led by ACC Director Mir Md Zainul Abedin Shebly arrested Razzaq in the capital’s Shegunbagicha, according to the commission’s spokesman Pranab Kumar Bhattacharya. JMI Hospital Requisite Manufacturing Ltd, a unit of JMI Group, is at the heart of the controversy. On Jun 15, the anti-graft agency brought together a four-member team led by Zainul Abedin Shebly to look into complaints over the purchase and supply of low-quality N-95 masks, PPEs and other health safety equipment amid the pandemic outbreak to the government. The investigation team interrogated the seven accused and several others over the complaints and the case was filed after three months of investigation.
