DHAKA, May 19, 2025 (BSS) - A court here today ordered to freeze eight more bank accounts of former director general (DG) of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) Major General (Retd) Mohammad Shafeenul Islam and his wife Soma Islam.
Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the order, allowing a petition of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).
The ACC in its plea said it is probing allegations of amassing huge illegal wealth by Shafeenul and his family members by abusing power and corruption.
"During the investigation, it has been learned that the couple has eight more bank accounts, which are still active and they are using those to transfer their ill-gotten money. So, the accounts should be frozen immediately," the ACC plea added.
Earlier on January 23, a Dhaka court had ordered to freeze 56 bank accounts of Mohammad Shafeenul Islam, his wife Soma Islam and son Samin Islam.
