| 2007-08-08 |
| Detained Awami League (AL) President Sheikh Hasina will submit her wealth statement to the Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) today willingly, not under any pressure following the ACC notice which was stayed by the High Court yesterday, said Hasina's tax lawyer Khandakar Maniruzzaman yesterday. "She [Hasina] told me that she would submit her wealth statement," AL president's counsel Maniruzzaman told The Daily Star yesterday after holding a three-hour-long meeting with the AL chief at the special jail on the Jatiya Sangsad premises. He said Hasina, who was detained on July 16 in connection with two cases on charges of extortion of Tk 8 crore, yesterday signed her three-page wealth statement which said that she has properties worth about Tk 2 crore. |
