DHAKA, Oct 20, 2025 (BSS) - The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has submitted a charge sheet against Syed Ayez Uddin, former senior sales assistant of Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution Company Limited and his wife Shahana Bilkis on charges of acquiring wealth inconsistent with his known source of income and money laundering.

ACC Director General Md Akhter Hossain came up with the development at its regular media briefing here.

The case was filed on December 6, 2021 by then ACC Deputy Assistant Director and currently Assistant Director Md Ferdous Rahman.

The case was filed under Section 27(1) of the Anti-Corruption Commission Act, 2004, Section 109 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and Section 4(2) of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2012. 

The investigation was led by ACC Assistant Director Mohammad Monirul Islam.

According to the findings, Shahana Bilkis declared a total of Tk.1.16 crore in her wealth statement. During the investigation, the total assets were found at Tk 1.26 crore.

On the other hand, Bilkis's total income from legal sources was only Tk 18.20 lakh, but investigators found she acquired assets worth Tk 1.08 crore which is inconsistent with known sources of income.

The ACC investigation further revealed that Syed Ayez Uddin had actually acquired these assets illegally through bribery and corruption while working at Titas Gas. He invested money in his wife's name to hide assets.
