A Dhaka court has ordered the freezing of 57 bank accounts belonging to former state minister and Awami League leader Jahangir Kabir Nanak, his wife Syeda Arjuman Banu, and their daughter S. Amreen Rakhi. The accounts reportedly contain around Tk 2.89 crore. The order was issued by Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Sabbir Foyez on November 17 following a petition from the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). According to the ACC’s application, investigations revealed suspicious transactions totaling Tk 32.18 crore across various accounts, including deposits of Tk 17.55 crore and withdrawals of Tk 14.62 crore. The ACC suspects the funds may have originated from corruption and bribery, indicating possible money laundering. The commission also noted attempts to transfer or conceal the funds, prompting the court to freeze the accounts to ensure a fair investigation.
