Court for publishing gazette showing Falu fugitive

A court in the city on Thursday ordered the authorities concerned to publish gazette on newspaper, showing former BNP lawmaker Mosaddek Ali Falu "fugitive" in a case filed over allegedly laundering around Tk 1.84 billion (183.92 crore) to Dubai through offshore company, reports BSS.

Dhaka Metropolitan Sessions Judge KM Imrul Qayesh passed the order, setting May 23 for submitting report on executing the order.

On December 13, 2021, the court accepted the charge-sheet against Falu and two other accused in the case. The court on that day issued arrest warrant against him as he was shown fugitive in the charge sheet. But as the police failed to arrest the accused, court Thursday came up with the latest order.

The two other accused in the case are SAK Ikramuzzaman, and Syed AK Anwaruzzaman. The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) filed the charge-sheet on September 30, 2021.
