The government has appointed a counsel to the stocks probe committee to assist it in legal matters, says the committee chief.
Ibrahim Khaled, at a views-exchange meeting with stock market reporters on Tuesday, said Nihat Kabir had been made the fourth member of the committee.
Khaled, also chairman of the Bangladesh Krishi Bank, said, 'I had requested the finance minister to include a counsel to the committee as there are many things in the investigation which need legal attention.'
Finance minister A M A Muhith approved the proposal to appoint Nihat, the committee chief said. 'A gazette has been issued in this regard.'
Expressing satisfaction over the progress in the investigation, he said, 'The probe report will be submitted to the finance minister in due time.'
'The minister will decide whether the report will be made public or not,' he added.
