News Desk :
A Dhaka court has issued arrest warrants for Noor Ali, managing director of Unique Group, and his wife Salina Ali in a case involving charges of fraud and embezzlement, reports bdnews24.com.
Dhaka’s Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Asaduzzaman Noor issued the order on Monday after the couple failed to turn up for a hearing, according to Advocate Farukur Rahman, counsel for the plaintiff.
The case was filed by Selim Ahmed, chairman of
Jalal Ahmed Spinning Mill and Shah Fateullah Textile Mills, with the Dhaka Chief Metropolitan Magistrate’s Court on Feb 24, 2019 in connection with a dispute over the registration of a flat in the Unique Heights building, developed by Noor Ali’s Borak Real Estate in Dhaka’s Paribagh.
Citing the case dossier, Farukur said, “The accused took Tk 29.28 million from the plaintiff over the sale of floor space. Although the accused were supposed to get the flat registered in 2015, they kept stalling. That is why they have been accused of embezzling money in the case.”
The lawyer said that when the case was filed in the court last year, the plaintiff sought to press charges against seven people, including Noor Ali and his wife.
“After the case was filed, the judge tasked the Police Bureau of Investigation to look into the matter. An investigation report was submitted to the court against Noor Ali and Salina while letting the five others off the hook.”
