DHAKA, April 9, 2025 (BSS) - A court here today ordered to freeze a fixed 
deposit (FD) account titled Bangabandhu Memorial Trust Fund of ousted prime 
minister Sheikh Hasina, her son Sajeeb Wazed, daughter Saima Wazed and her 
sister Sheikh Rehana at NCC Bank PLC.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the 
order, allowing a plea of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

ACC deputy director Monirul Islam filed the plea before the court, saying the 
FD is of Taka 16.12 crore.

"Sheikh Hasina, Sajeeb Wazed, Saima Wazed and Sheikh Rehana are trying to 
hand over, transfer the movable properties from their accounts and that is 
why the account should be frozen," the plea said.
