Meanwhile, the anti-corruption watchdog claimed to have found evidence of Papon and his family members possessing Tk 33 crore, which they earn through unknown sources of income.

Based on adequate evidence, the ACC has already given approval to file a case against Papon, who was also the minister of Youth and Sports of the recently ousted Awami League government.

Md Saiduzzaman, deputy director of the ACC, will file the case against Papon and his wife in this connection immediately, said a source of the ACC.
