DHAKA, April 24, 2025 (BSS) - A court here today imposed a travel ban on four people, including former Bagerhat-2 lawmaker Sheikh Tonmoy and former Khulna-2 lawmaker Sheikh Salahuddin, over graft allegations.

The two other people, who have been barred from leaving the country are Sheikh Sohel and Sheikh Jalal Uddin Rubel.

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

The anti-graft body in its plea said the commission is probing allegations against them for amassing illegal wealth and received information that they are trying to flee the country. If they manage to escape the country, the investigation will be hampered.

"So, travel ban should be imposed on them immediately," it added.
