DHAKA, Feb 19, 2025 (BSS) – The Anti-Corruption 
Commission (ACC) has recovered two sacks of documents 
related to Former Inspector General of Police (IGP) AKM 
Shahidul Haque’s illegal assets from a relative’s house.

ACC Deputy Director and Public Relations Officer Aktarul 
Islam said that a five-member team, led by investigation 
officer and Assistant Director Rakibul Hayat, conducted 
a drive at the relative’s house of Shahidul from Tuesday 
midnight to early Wednesday and recovered a total of 48 
pieces of evidence of 38 different types in the two sacks.

The documents included a huge number of property deeds, 
various confidential agreements, deeds of agreement, 
power of attorney documents, bonds, FDR copies, company 
memorandums, offer letters, and bank account statements, 
according to the ACC.

The ACC said that following allegations of amassment of 
huge wealth through illegal means by former IGP AKM 
Shahidul Haque, investigation operations against the 
former top police official were carried out.

At one stage of the investigation process, the anti-
graft body received intelligence information that 
Shahidul Haque had sent those documents in two sacks 
related to his illegal assets to a close relative. 

The intelligence report suggests that the relative later 
moved the documents to another relative’s residence in 
an attempt to conceal those documents containing records 
of wealth worth crores of Taka, allegedly acquired 
through unlawful means.
