The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed a case against former home minister and member of parliament Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir and his wife Sitara Alamgir over laundering Tk 216 crore.
ACC Assistant Director Mohammad Shahjahan Miraj filed the case at the commission’s coordinated district office, confirmed ACC Director General Akhtar Hossain on Wednesday.
According to ACC sources, between 2009 and September 2024, the couple allegedly transferred and converted illicit funds obtained through bribery and corruption across multiple accounts.
Investigations revealed that the accused Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir and his associated companies deposited Tk 216.016 crore and USD 6,188 across 79 bank accounts, while withdrawing Tk 209.176 crore and USD 6,000 during the same period.
The ACC noted that the transfers were aimed at concealing the illegal origin, ownership, and control of the funds, a violation punishable under Sections 4(2) and 4(3) of the Money Laundering Prevention Act, 2012.
This is the latest case against former lawmaker Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir. In October 2024, the ACC had filed a separate case against him and six others for the alleged embezzlement of Tk 8.86 crore from Farmers Bank and related money laundering.
