Police have arrested Shamsuddoha Khondker, former Additional Inspector General of Police, in connection with a cheque fraud case.
He was picked up on Sunday from his resort, Wonderland Green Park, in Nawabganj.
Shamsuddoha, long accused of corruption, allegedly amassed vast wealth by pocketing commissions from river dredging tenders and extorting industrialists who illegally occupied riversides.
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed charges against him and his wife Ferdousi Sultana, accusing them of concealing assets worth over Tk 66.48 crore and acquiring illegal wealth.
