Submit probe report by March 24
A Dhaka court yesterday again asked the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) to submit by March 24 the probe report of a case filed against expelled Jubo League leader Khalid Mahmud Bhuiyan over amassing wealth through illegal means.
Judge KM Emrul Kayesh of the Senior Special Judge's Court of Dhaka passed the order as ACC Deputy Director Zahangir Alam, also investigation officer of the case, failed to submit any report yesterday.
On October 21 last year, the ACC filed the case against expelled Jubo League Dhaka south organising secretary Khalid for amassing Tk 5.58 crore illegally.
According to the First Information Report (FIR), Khalid showed his movable property worth Tk 1.66 crore. However, the ACC believes the property value would be Tk 4.50 crore.
Besides, Khalid in his 2018-19 income tax file showed having immovable property worth Tk 1.32 crore. Of these, ACC did not find legal source of Tk 90.16 lakh.
On September 18 last year, Rab arrested Khaled from his Gulshan-2 residence for operating a casino. A shotgun, two pistols, 57 rounds of shotgun bullets, 53 rounds of pistol bullets and 585 yaba pills were also seized from his possession.
Later, five cases were filed against Khalid, who used to run a casino in Fakirerpool Young Men's Club, under the firearms, narcotics control and money laundering acts.
Earlier Rab pressed charges against Khalid in the cases filed under the arms and narcotics control acts.
While the Criminal Investigation Department submitted a charge sheet against him, his two brothers and three accomplices in the money laundering case.
On February 26, another Dhaka court framed charges against Khalid in the case filed under the Narcotics Control Act.
