The Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) has sought for the bank account details of SK Sur Chowdhury, former deputy governor of Bangladesh Bank, his spouse and BB Executive Director Shah Alam and his spouses.
The BFIU issued the notice on March 11, three weeks after the issuance of similar notice by the National Board of Revenue on February 23 this year.
Earlier, two close associates of PK Hader confessed to a Dhaka court that two high-placed BB officials had assisted them to conduct the financial scams.
Bangladesh Bank withdrew Shah Alam from the responsibility of monitoring two departments for his alleged connection with PK Halder following the confessional statement.
Shah Alam was relieved from his duties at the central bank’s Department of Financial Institutions and Markets and the Department of Banking Inspection-2.
SK Sur Chowdhury, a former deputy governor of the central bank, also assisted PK Halder, according to the confessional statement.
