ACC charges ex-Samabaya Bank chair

Staff Reporter :

The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed a chargesheet against former Samabaya Bank chairman and Dhaka South Awami League joint general secretary Mohiuddin Ahmed Mahi, accusing him of amassing assets worth around Tk35 crore illegally and concealing information in his wealth statement.

ACC Director General Akhter Hossain confirmed the development to reporters on Monday.
According to the ACC, while serving as vice chairman and later chairman of Samabaya Bank, Mohiuddin allegedly abused his authority to accumulate substantial wealth through corrupt practices.

After failing to justify the legitimacy of these assets, he reportedly attempted to launder the money under the guise of business activities.
The ACC’s investigation also revealed that Mohiuddin concealed assets worth Tk4.63 crore in his official wealth statement. In total, he is alleged to have acquired unexplained wealth amounting to Tk35.55 crore.

A list of both declared and concealed movable and immovable assets of the accused has been submitted to the court along with the chargesheet, ACC sources said.
The chargesheet marks a significant step in the ACC’s ongoing efforts to hold high-profile public figures accountable for illegal enrichment and financial misconduct.
