Banks asked to freeze SBAC chairman’s account
The Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit asked banks on March 11 to freeze the accounts of South Bangla Agriculture and Commerce Bank Chairman SM Amjad Hossain and his spouse Begum Sufia Amjad and their daughter Miss Tajri for 30 days.
The BFIU asked to provide the details of the accounts' information within today.
On January 7, the Anti-Corruption Commission imposed a ban on foreign travels by the three persons.
The anti-graft watchdog requested superintendent of police of Special Branch to impose the travel ban.
The ban was slapped as part of the commission's enquiry into loan irregularities perpetrated by Amjad.
He did not reply to a request from The Daily Star for comment.
Approached by The Daily Star, Abu Hena Mohammad Razee Hassan, head of the BFIU, said the intelligence agency had been unable to disclose any information to this end given the sensitivity of the matter.
