DHAKA, Aug 14, 2025 (BSS) - Fact-checking organisation FactWatch has uncovered a misleading attempt to defame BNP leader and Khaleda Zia's adviser, Habibur Rahman Habib, through the circulation of an outdated video on social media.

A video recently went viral on Facebook, claiming that law enforcement recovered seven sacks and a chest full of money from Habib's residence.
The footage has been widely shared, fueling speculation and public confusion.

However, a FactWatch investigation has confirmed that the video is at least five years old and has no connection to any recent event involving Habibur Rahman Habib.

The watchdog labeled the renewed circulation of the video as a deliberate attempt to spread baseless propaganda.
