The joint forces picked up Arafat from the residence of Khaleda Zia early Monday morning on corruption charges.
“Of course there were specific allegations against him,” Matin said responding to the query of the journalists yesterday.
The adviser, however, said he did not know about the allegations when the journalists asked him to go into details.
Asked about further arrest in future, MA Matin, who is also the chairman of a national co-ordination committee for combating crime and corruption, said the government will investigate case by case and people with specific allegations will be arrested.
The Anti-Corruption Commission will file specific cases against them after investigation of the taskforce, he said, adding that the ongoing drive against corruption will continue.
Matin was talking to the journalists after emerging from a board meeting of Bangladesh Shipping Corporation at the conference room of the Ministry of Shipping at the secretariat.
