A foreign national volunteered the information the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) needed to get at bribery involving BNP Chief Khaleda Zia's younger son Arafat Rahman Koko, said ACC sources.
In a five-page statement, he said he would aid the anti-graft body in its probe on condition that his identity would be kept secret and safety ensured. Introducing himself as "a chartered secretary...married with two children", he also said he would not come to Bangladesh to testify against anyone for fear of reprisal.

On this understanding, the ACC sent an official to Singapore to explore the official procedures there to investigate graft. It also consulted a local legal expert on how to go about the task.
