DHAKA, May 19, 2025 (BSS) - A court here today ordered to freeze 13 
beneficiary owner (BO) accounts of former chairman of RAJUK Major General 
(Retd) Md Siddiqur Rahman Sarker and his wife Gazi Rebeka Rowshan over graft 
allegations.

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

The anti-graft body in its plea said it is probing different allegations 
against Major General (Retd) Md Siddiqur Rahman Sarker. 

Siddiqur, during his tenure as the chairman of the Rajdhani Unnayan 
Kartripakkha (RAJUK), amassed huge illegal wealth in his and his family 
members names through corruption including embezzling money by allocating 
plots in Purbachal New Town project, the ACC said in its plea.

"Accused Siddiqur, Gazi Rebeka Rowshan have made huge investments through 
their BO accounts, FDR and savings certificates and they are trying to 
withdraw the money from their accounts and launder those abroad. So all their 
movable properties should be frozen," it added.
