The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed major cases against prominent political figures Shamim Osman, former Narayanganj-4 MP, and Jahangir Kabir Nanak, an Awami League Presidium Member and ex-minister.
These cases, also involving their family members, are centered around corruption claims involving a staggering sum of nearly 400 crore taka.
On Wednesday, January 15, the ACC’s Khulna Divisional Director, Jalal Uddin Ahmed, officially lodged the cases at the ACC’s Dhaka Integrated District Office.
This move came after investigations into substantial allegations of money laundering.
ACC Director General Md. Akhtar Hossain confirmed the filing of the lawsuits.
According to the ACC, Shamim Osman and his family are accused of laundering 193 crore 91 lakh 18 thousand BDT.
In a separate case, Nanak and his family are facing charges for the embezzlement of 259 crore 62 lakh 5 thousand BDT.
The accused include Shamim Osman, his wife Salma Osman, and son Tanvir Ahmed.
In Nanak’s case, his wife Syeda Arzuman Banu and daughter S. Amreen Rakhi have also been named.
The charges are filed under the Money Laundering Prevention Act, 2012, as well as section 109 of the Penal Code.
This case has drawn attention due to the high-profile names involved and the significant sums of money in question.
The ACC is pressing forward, and this legal battle is expected to unfold in the coming months.
