hearing on a plea filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) to take
former member of National Board of Revenue (NBR) Matiur Rahman on a seven-day
remand in a graft case.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the
order as the Investigation Officer (IO) filed the plea today. The court after
that set the date for hearing and asked police to produce Matiur before it on
that day.

Detective Branch (DB) of police on January 15 arrested Matiur Rahman and his
wife Laila Kaniz from the city's Bashundhara Residential Area.

Matiur became a subject of controversy due to a high-profile sacrificial
goat, which was booked by his son.

Matiur Rahman was accused in number of cases, including two graft cases.

Deputy Director of the ACC Md Anwar Hossain filed this case against him on
January 6 for concealing information of wealth of Taka 1.27 crore and
amassing illegal wealth of Taka 5.28 crore.
