BANGLADESH NEWS
The
Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has taken a move to seize all the
movable and immovable property of controversial Destiny Group.
An investigation panel of the anti-graft body has already sent the
copy of a court order to 48 relevant government offices in 23 districts
to seize the Density property.
The offices include Dhaka Metropolitan Police, Chittagong
Metropolitan Police, Rajshahi Metropolitan Police and Bangladesh Road
and Transport Authority (BRTA).
ACC officials said the Destiny Group has a huge amount of movable and
immovable property, including land, cars, buildings and flats.
The court order was also sent to the deputy commissioners (DCs) and
other authorities concerned so that the company cannot sell or hand over
its property.
In November last year, a Dhaka court ordered confiscation of all the
movable and immovable property of Destiny Group, its chairman, managing
director and his wife in two money-laundering cases.
Earlier on October 2, the same court had ordered freezing of 533 bank accounts of Destiny officials following an ACC petition.
The graft watchdog on July 31, 2012 filed the money-laundering cases
against Destiny Group President Lt Gen (retd) Harun-Ar-Rashid and
managing director Rafiqul Amin and 20 others on charge of
misappropriating its clients money of around Tk 35 billion.
