DHAKA, Jan 14, 2025 (BSS) -A court here today imposed travel ban on former environment, forest and climate change minister Md Shahab Uddin, his son Zakir Hossain Jumon and former deputy minister for environment and forests Abdullah Al Islam Jakob over graft allegations.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Zakir Hossain Galib passed the orders, allowing two separate pleas of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

The anti-graft body in its plea against Shahab Uddin and his son alleged that the father son duo has amassed huge illegal wealth through corruption and embezzlement of public money.

 Travel ban should be imposed against them to keep them in country to make them stand trial.

In another plea, the ACC said it is probing allegations of corruption, embezzlement of public funds, laundering money and amassment of huge illegal wealth against Jakob and for the sake of proper investigation, travel embargo should be imposed against them.
