A Dhaka court has postponed the charge framing hearing against former adviser Salman F Rahman and former law minister Anisul Huq in a case filed under the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act. The hearing, originally scheduled for Tuesday, was deferred to June 21 after the defense sought more time. Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md Sabbir Faiz granted the request following submissions from the defendants’ lawyers, who cited incomplete preparation and the illness of a senior counsel.

According to the case, police acting on intelligence from Bangladesh Bank detained the two in August 2024 near Sadarghat, Dhaka, and seized various foreign currencies from their possession. The case was filed a month later by a police sub-inspector under the Kotwali Police Station. The investigation officer submitted the charge sheet in November 2025, alleging that both accused knowingly held foreign currency without proper authorization or documentation.

The next hearing on June 21 will determine whether formal charges will be framed against the two former officials under the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act.
