Three members of Bangladesh's SAFF Women's Championship-winning team discovered money stolen from their respective luggage at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport.
BFF general secretary Abu Nayeem Shohag confirmed the news.
He said: "I heard two of them lost 500 dollars each and one of them lost Bangladeshi takas and Nepali rupees."
The members are Sanjida Akhtar, Krishna Rani Sarkar and Shamsunnahar Senior. However, the location of the theft remains unknown, as of yet.
They found out the matter on Wednesday soon after the team received a grand reception upon their arrival in the country from Kathmandu.
After the Bangladesh team landed at the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 1:46 pm on Wednesday, they embarked on a more than four-hour long journey from the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport to the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) headquarters in Dhaka.
