The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) submitted chargesheet against 14 people including five physicians in a case over curtain scam at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical College Hospital (former Faridpur Medical College Hospital-FMCH).
Names of three people were excluded from the chargesheet as the ACC did not find their involvement in the graft. The chargesheet was submitted to Faridpur District and Sessions Judge Court in first week of this month after ACC Commissioner (investigation) Md Jahurul Hoque approved it.
Those excluded from the chargesheet are the hospital's associate prof (dental) Dr Ganapoti Biswas Shuvo, junior consultant (gynecology) Dr Minakki Chakma and Pathologist Dr AHM Nurul Islam.
Md Rezaul Karim, deputy director of Faridpur ACC integrated office, said they submitted the chargesheet after getting a nod from the head office.
He said the court set September 11 for hearing the case.
The accused embezzled Tk 10crore in the name of purchasing equipment, including curtain at an abnormal price, for the hospital.
After widespread criticism across the country over the matter, the High Court ordered the ACC to look into the allegations on August 20 in 2019.
Subsequently, the ACC filed a case in this regard.
