Abdul Malek, a driver at the Ministry of Health who has been accused of earning a substantial amount through graft, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison over an arms case.
Dhaka Metropolitan Special Tribunal-4 Judge Rabiul Alam announced the verdict in the case on Monday, reports bdnews24.com.
The two sections of the case against Malek carry maximum sentences of 15 years each, for a maximum of 30. However, as he will serve the two terms simultaneously, he will only have to stay in prison for a total of 15 years.
