Corruption and Power of Matiur Defeat Badiur Rahman

I was listening to Sheikh Badiur Rahman on Desh Television discussing Matiur Rahman, President of the Customs, Excise, and VAT Appellate Tribunal of the National Board of Revenue (NBR). Badiur Rahman was the Chairman of the NBR during the army-backed caretaker government. He joined Bangladesh Bank as an 'Officer Class One' in 1976 and later moved to Cadre Service after passing the BCS examination. I remember seeing him at the house of my elder brother Mohiuddin Ahmed, Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. During their conversation, I noticed that Badiur Rahman only ate puffed rice (muri).
