A court in Dhaka has ordered the authorities concerned to freeze four bank accounts of former Director General (DG) of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI) Major General (Retd) Hamidul Haque as an investigation against him by the Anti-Corruption Commission is ongoing.
Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the order, allowing a petition, filed by ACC Assistant Director Nawshad Ali.
ACC in its plea said the intelligence sources of anti-graft body indicated that Hamidul and the people related to his interests are trying to withdraw and transfer or relocate the funds from the accounts, and that can thwart the investigation that is ongoing against him.
Therefore, the accounts should be frozen immediately, the ACC petition added.
Earlier, on April 21, 2025, the same court had imposed a travel ban on Major General (Retd) Hamidul Haque and his wife Nusrat Jahan Mukta over graft allegations.
