In a major development, the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed a case against former State Minister for Power, Energy, and Mineral Resources, Nasrul Hamid Bipu.
The case alleges that he is involved in suspicious financial activities, including holding illegal assets worth over 36 crore Taka and engaging in unusual transactions amounting to over 3,181 crore Taka across 98 bank accounts.
The case was filed on Thursday, December 26, by Mohammad Mostafizur Rahman, Deputy Director of the ACC, at the commission`s office in Dhaka.
According to the case details, while in a key government position, Nasrul Hamid Bipu is accused of acquiring assets worth 36 crore 36 lakh 99 thousand 657 Taka, which are inconsistent with his known sources of income.
The investigation also reveals that Bipu had large sums of money — a total of 3,181 crore 58 lakh 83 thousand 313 Taka — deposited across 98 of his bank accounts.
What raised suspicion is that most of the money was withdrawn in an irregular and unexplained manner. The ACC`s probe suggests that these financial activities may be linked to money laundering.
The case has raised serious concerns about corruption at high levels, and the investigation is still ongoing.
