Leaders of the Student Movement Against Discrimination on Thursday urged the Anti-Corruption Commission to work with integrity in order to regain people’s confidence in the commission.

Hasnat Abdullah, one of the coordinators of the student platform, stressed the need for preventing corrupt individuals from being placed in positions of power.


‘We want to lock these practices away in the past,’ he told journalists at the ACC headquarters after a meeting with ACC chairman  Moinuddin Abdullah at the commission.

He also expressed concerns over attempts to discredit their movement through threats and lawsuits, allegedly forged in their names.

‘The system will operate as it should, and the ACC will act according to its laws,’ he added.

Sarjis Alam, another coordinator of the movement, said that they discussed how the commission could overcome the negative image it had developed over the past 16 years in the country with the ACC chairman.

The coordinators expressed their hope that the ACC could restore public confidence and work effectively to prevent corruption.
