Bangladesh Bank has sought information from various banks concerning accounts owned by 13 people including several politicians, their children, and some businessmen.
Two among them are Jatiya Party chief HM Ershad and Opposition Leader Raushon Ershad’s only son Rahgir Al Mahi Ershad, alias Saad, and Arafat Rahman Coco, younger son of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia.
The central bank’s Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) on Thursday sent the letters to
the banks in this connection.
BFIU investigates money laundering, terror financing, and suspicious trading. It also assists other government organisations and intelligence agencies in their investigations by providing information.
