UNB, Dhaka :
The Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) on Sunday filed a case against an alleged money-launderer for siphoning off about Tk 328 crore.
ACC assistant director Shamsul Alam filed the case against Mohammad Sabbir, owner of four private firms, with city’s Chawkbazar Model Thana, ACC public relations officer Pranab Kumar told reporters at the ACC head office.
Mohammad Sabbir is the owner of SS Enterprise, GS Enterprise, KGN Enterprise and NS Trading Company.
According to the first information report (FIR), Sabbir amassed the huge amount of money through hundi (illegal channel of money transfer) business. He deposited about Tk 328 crore at 19 bank accounts of his firms in cash or through transfer of money and withdrew it.
He exchanged the money using the accounts of a number of private commercial banks from November 2009 to April 2014.
The ACC inquiry officer visited the four private firms and collected relevant documents but did not find any data of export-import business, the FIR said.
