A Dhaka court has ordered the seizure of income tax records belonging to former Air Chief Marshal Sheikh Abdul Hannan and his wife Tahmida Begum. The order was issued on Monday, March 30, 2026, by Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Sabbir Foyez. Court bench assistant Md Riaz Hossain confirmed the decision.
The Anti-Corruption Commission’s assistant director Mahmudul Hasan had earlier submitted two separate petitions seeking to seize the couple’s tax documents. The petitions stated that both Hannan and Tahmida are registered taxpayers. According to the filings, the seizure of their primary and miscellaneous income tax records from the opening date up to the 2024–25 tax year was necessary for a fair investigation.
After the hearing, the court approved the petitions and issued the order. The report also notes that on May 6 of a previous year, the court had ordered the seizure of Sheikh Abdul Hannan’s assets.
