The National Citizen Party (NCP) suspended all party affiliations of its Joint Member Secretary, Gazi Salauddin Tanvir on Monday, pending the completion of an internal investigation into allegations of corruption against him.
In a notification, the party also alleged Tanvir of disobeying previous verbal warnings over breaching disciplinary conduct.
An hour later, Tanvir welcomed the NCP move for setting an example of "transparency and accountability."
In a facebook post, he also said, “He would submit his response over the matter shortly with the Will of the Almighty.”
"Conspirators can rejoice until then”, he said.
On Monday, NCP also served a show cause notice to Tanvir, asking him to submit a written clarification over his corruption allegations within seven days. Within seven days, Tanvir also has to provide a written explanation as to why he should not be permanently banned from NCP.
On 11 March, the Daily Inqilab ran a report citing allegations of Tanvir’s illegal intervention in district administrator appointment, and illegally profiting from textbook printing works.
