Chittagong University has appointed Dr. Mohammad Saleh Zahur, an associate of S. Alam Group owner Mohammad Saiful Alam, as the new Dean of the Faculty of Business Administration. The appointment was made on Sunday by Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Mohammad Al-Forkan under his executive authority. Zahur replaces Abdur Rahman, who was appointed four months earlier.
According to the report, Zahur was initially known as a BNP supporter but later aligned himself with the Awami League after the 2008 national election. He served as an independent director of Islami Bank from May 2019 until the July 2024 uprising and was also a member of the bank’s executive and audit committees. Zahur is a defendant in multiple Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) cases related to alleged embezzlement from Islami Bank and the International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC), where he previously held senior roles.
Vice-Chancellor Al-Forkan stated that Zahur’s appointment was based on his academic excellence and his perceived ability to manage the faculty effectively.
