DHAKA, July 05, 2026 (BSS) - A court here today set July 21 for passing its order on charge framing in a graft case against former member of National Board of Revenue (NBR) Matiur Rahman.

Dhaka Divisional Special Judge BM Tarikul Kabir passed the order after holding hearing on the matter today.

Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) deputy director Md Anwar Hossain filed the case on December 15, 2024, for concealing information of wealth of Taka 1.27 crore and amassing illegal wealth of Taka 5.28 crore.

The anti-graft body on February 3, 2026, submitted a charge sheet against Matiur, who had earlier come under intense public scrutiny in 2024 after his son, booked a sacrificial goat for a staggering Taka 15 lakh.
