The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) yesterday filed a case against former Bhola-2 lawmaker Hafiz Ibrahim, also a BNP leader, for allegedly misappropriating a piece of Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (Rajuk) land in the capital.

According to the FIR of the case filed with Motijheel Police Station, Hafiz was a member of parliament from 2001 till 2005. On January 1, 2004, he filed an application with Rajuk for a plot at Banani. The application included an undertaking in which he stated that he did not possess any land allotted by Rajuk.
