A Dhaka court has ordered the freezing of 445 bank accounts belonging to former City Bank officer Sheikh Md. Wajih Uddin, 61 other individuals, and their associated entities. The order was issued on Monday, March 9, 2026, by Dhaka Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md. Sabbir Fayez. The court acted on a petition filed by the Criminal Investigation Department’s Cyber Investigations and Operations Center, represented by Additional Special Superintendent Suman Kumar Saha.
According to the petition, Wajih Uddin allegedly deposited about Tk 51.12 crore across five accounts. Investigators found that 61 related individuals, including SM Junaidul Haque, Omar Hit Hitlu, and Mehedi Hasan Talukder, collectively deposited Tk 1,212 crore and withdrew Tk 1,207 crore through 595 accounts in various scheduled banks. The transactions were reportedly linked to online gaming, betting, cyber fraud, hundi, currency smuggling, cryptocurrency trading, and customs evasion.
The court deemed the account freeze necessary to prevent further movement of funds suspected to be tied to these illegal activities.
