Attorney General AM Amin Uddin Asaduzzaman has accused the former government of unprecedented money laundering, citing international reports that estimate around 19 lakh crore taka ($1.9 trillion) was siphoned out of Bangladesh each year—equivalent to three national budgets.
Speaking at the BUP National Law Fest, he said the current government is investigating the illicit outflows. He also stressed that the Bangladesh Bar Council exams are conducted transparently, leaving no room for question leaks.
Organizers of the festival said the event aimed to enhance students’ extracurricular skills, promote legal research and policy dialogue, and build inter-university connections. Around 400 students and 50 judges participated.
