‘ACC guidelines can help prevent systemic graft in government offices’
Iqbal Mahmood took charge of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) five years ago with the goal of curbing graft. During these years, he took several bold steps like bringing reforms in the enquiry and investigation processes, introducing a hotline service and pinpointing loopholes and pockets of corruption within government organisations. Yet he had to face criticism for the long delay in investigating the BASIC Bank loan scam and failing to nab the big fishes. As the ACC chairman nears the end of his term this month, he shares his experience, achievements and expectations with The Daily Star’s Mahbubur Rahman Khan.
