The Anti-Corruption Commission filed two cases on Monday against former assistant director of the National Board of Revenue Badrun Nahar and her husband former additional chief engineer of roads and highways department Kabir Ahmed on the charges of amassing illegal wealth.
ACC assistant director Jinnatul Isalm filed the cases with its integrated district office in Dhaka-1, said an ACC official.
According to the case statement, former revenue officer Badrun Nahar declared assets worth Tk 8.60 crore in her wealth statement submitted to the ACC, but the commission, during an inquiry, found that she amassed movable and immovable assets worth Tk 9.91 crore.
The ACC, however, found the acceptable income of Badrun Nahar at Tk 4.15 crore against her movable and immovable wealth worth Tk 9.91 crore.

The case statement says that the former revenue officer also built a six-story house in her name on three and a half katha land in the capital鈥檚 Bansree鈥檚 F block.
