A Dhaka court has ordered the seizure of income tax records belonging to former Chief Whip and ex-MP of Madaripur-1 constituency, Noor-E-Alam Chowdhury, in connection with a corruption case. The order was issued on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, by Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Sabbir Faiz following a petition from the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). Court bench assistant Md Riaz Hossain confirmed the decision.

Earlier, ACC Assistant Director A.K.M. Murtuza Ali Sagar, the investigating officer, submitted a petition seeking the seizure of Chowdhury’s tax documents up to the 2024–25 fiscal year, citing the necessity for a fair investigation. After a hearing, the judge approved the request.

The ACC had filed the case on March 25, 2025, accusing Chowdhury of amassing Tk 57.49 crore in unexplained wealth and conducting suspicious transactions totaling Tk 232.11 crore through eight bank accounts.
