A Dhaka court has issued an arrest warrant against former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Benazir Ahmed in a case involving over Tk 11 crore in alleged illegal assets. On Sunday, March 8, 2026, Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Sabbir Foyez accepted the Anti-Corruption Commission’s (ACC) charge sheet and ordered the warrant as Benazir remains absconding. The court also directed authorities to submit a report on the arrest by March 30, according to court bench assistant Md Riaz Hossain.
The ACC had filed the case on December 15, 2024, through Deputy Director Hafizul Islam, accusing Benazir of acquiring wealth beyond known income sources, concealing asset information, and money laundering. The charge sheet, submitted on November 30, 2025, stated that Benazir declared assets worth Tk 12.2 crore, but investigators found evidence of property totaling Tk 15.68 crore.
According to the ACC findings, Benazir’s legitimate income accounted for Tk 6.59 crore, leaving Tk 11.04 crore in unexplained wealth. The report alleges he concealed the origins and ownership of these funds through various bank accounts and business ventures.
