Government agencies including the ACC, CID, and BFIU have launched investigations into three former Bangladesh Bank governors—Dr. Atiur Rahman, Fazle Kabir, and Abdur Rauf Talukdar—over unprecedented looting in the banking sector during the Awami League’s 15-year rule. They stand accused of enabling loan scams, bank takeovers, reserve theft, and printing money to bail out weak banks, much of which was allegedly siphoned abroad. The probe also targets former deputy governor SK Sur Chowdhury and ex-BFIU chief Masud Biswas.
