A Dhaka court has ordered the freezing of 21 bank accounts belonging to former Dhaka South City Corporation mayor Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh, his sons Sheikh Fazle Nashwan and Sheikh Fazle Nawar, and their associates. The order was issued by Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Sabbir Foyez following a petition from the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). The ACC alleged that Taposh abused his power to amass illegal wealth worth over Tk 73 crore. Investigators found that between September 2013 and August 2024, Taposh deposited and withdrew a total of Tk 539 crore across 27 bank accounts, along with significant foreign currency transactions. The ACC argued that the freeze was necessary to prevent the transfer or concealment of assets while the investigation continues. The court granted the request after reviewing the evidence presented by the ACC’s assistant director and investigation officer, Md Ferdous Rahman.
