A Dhaka court has issued arrest an warrant against 10 including former Managing Director of the then NRB Global Bank and Reliance Finance, Proshanta Kumar Halder alias PK Halder in a case lodged over amassing illegal wealth and laundering the money abroad.

Police produced co-accused Abantika Boral, Shonkho Bepari, Sukumar Mridha and Anindita Mridha before the court. As the other 10 accused including PK Halder remained absent, the court later issued arrest warrant against them.

The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on January 8, 2020, filed the case against Halder for amassing illegal wealth of around Taka 275 crore and laundering the money abroad.
