In its latest crackdown on money launderers, the National Board of Revenue (NBR) has sought details of the bank accounts of controversial industrialist Mohammad Saiful Alam, popularly known as S Alam and his family members.

The tax zone 15 of the NBR has issued a letter to 91 banks and financial institutions in this regard on August 14, seeking the details of accounts of S Alam‍‍`s wife Farzana Parvin, mother Chemon Ara Begum, and brother Abdullah Hasan.

Besides, details of the bank accounts of their parents, children, sisters, other family members, and any organisations they own were sought.

In the letter, the NBR has asked the banks and financial institutions to provide information on bank accounts and credit cards as soon as possible under the Income Tax Law-2023 of 200 sections.

The move by the NBR comes more than a week after a mass uprising forced Sheikh Hasina to step down ending her 15-year rule.
