Bangladesh’s Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has discovered 832 tola (approximately 9,707 grams) of gold in two lockers at Agrani Bank’s principal branch in Motijheel, Dhaka, linked to former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her family members. According to ACC Director General Akhter Hossain, the gold items, including ornaments and decorative pieces such as a golden boat and deer, were deposited under the names of Hasina, her sister Sheikh Rehana, and daughter Saima Wazed. The ACC is now verifying whether the assets are legally acquired. The discovery followed a court-approved operation to open three lockers—two at Agrani Bank and one at Pubali Bank—declared by Hasina in her 2007 wealth statement. Officials from the Bangladesh Bank, National Board of Revenue, and other agencies were present during the inventory process. One locker at Pubali Bank was found empty. The investigation is part of a broader corruption inquiry involving Hasina and her family’s declared assets.
