The public administration ministry's Senior Secretary Kamal Abdul Naser Chowdhury told bdnews24.com on Monday that they sought explanations from the public servants.
They have been asked to come up with explanations within 10 working days.
Those who have been showcaused are Health Secretary M Niaz Uddin Miah, Public Service Commission's Secretary AKM Amir Hossain, former Liberation War Affairs Secretary KH Masud Siddique, currently OSD (officer on special duty), and the same ministry's Joint Secretary Abul Kasem Talukder, also an OSD at present.
No action, however, has been taken against former PMO Secretary Molla Waheeduzzaman, now chairman of the Privatisation Commission, as his freedom-fighter certificate has been 'withheld' and not cancelled, said Chowdhury.
On Sept 14, the government decided to revoke certificates of five public servants, including Waheeduzzaman.
However, on Sept 22, the Liberation War affairs ministry said that Waheeduzzaman's certificate was 'withheld' and not cancelled.
It had then issued orders of cancelling freedom fighters' credentials of the four bureaucrats and wrote to the public administration ministry to take official measures against them.
