DHAKA, June 3, 2025 (BSS)- A court here today ordered the Anti-Corruption 
Commission (ACC) to attach a nine-storey building in Ashulia, a flat in 
Pallabi and 23 decimals of land and freeze three bank accounts of former 
Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI) Major General Saiful Alam 
and his wife Lubna Afroze over graft allegations. 

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

Deputy Director of the ACC (Public Relations) Aktarul Islam confirmed the 
matter.

The ACC in its plea said an investigation team has been formed to submit a 
report after inquiring into allegations that they misused power, engaged in 
various irregularities and corruption to unlawfully acquire wealth and 
obtained assets beyond their known sources of income in their names and their 
family members. 

During the investigation, it was learned that the family members involved in 
the allegations were attempting to transfer or misappropriate funds from 
their bank accounts. 

Concurrently, they are attempting to conceal assets by 
transferring ownership of the flat and the 9-floors house to their two 
daughters and wife through a gift deed after the ACC initiated its 
investigation.
