The Criminal Investigation Department has found involvement of 37 more people in the much-talked about Tk 2,000 crore money laundering racket of Faridpur.
The Criminal Investigation Department has found involvement of at least 30 people in laundering Tk 2,000 crore while investigating a case filed against two Faridpur brothers Sajjad Hossain Barkat and Imtiaz Hasan Rubel.
We are surprised to learn that names of six people were dropped from the charge sheet of a high-profile case over laundering of Tk 2,000 crore filed two years ago.
As members of a powerful syndicate, they allegedly manipulated tenders left and right and took cuts from numerous contracts across government offices in Faridpur.
The High Court yesterday observed that Khandaker Mohtesam Hossain Babar, brother of former LGRD minister Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain, is the mastermind behind the laundering of Tk 2,000 crore.
