DOT Desk: The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has issued a notice seeking an account of the assets of former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Benazir Ahmed and former NBR official Matiur Rahman within 21 working days, reports Daily Star.
At the same time, the anti-graft body has sought information about the assets of their wives and children, ACC Secretary Khorsheda Yasmeen said in a press briefing at the commission yesterday.
The investigating officers concerned have been asked to submit the accounts of Benazir and Matiur’s movable and immovable assets within 21 working days.

There will be penalties if the accounts are not submitted within the stipulated time, as per the ACC Act, the ACC secretary said.
Earlier on 24 June, despite receiving a second opportunity to appear before the ACC, Zeeshan Mirza, Benazir’s wife, and their two daughters did not show up for questioning.
Benazir Ahmed also failed to appear before the ACC on 23 June. Afterward, the ACC secretary had said the commission would now pursue further legal action against the former police chief.

On the other hand, Matiur and his family have not been served with a summons notice yet. According to sources, they too will be summoned soon.
