Thursday, 14 October 2021


Police have arrested Jubo League leader AHM Fuad, the assistant private secretary to former LGRD Minister Engineer Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain, in a money laundering case, reports bdnews24.com.
Fuad was arrested around midnight on Tuesday from Dhaka's Bashundhara, said Md Jamal Pasha, additional superintendent of Faridpur police.
"He has been in hiding for an extended period of time," the police official said at a press conference on Wednesday. "Police had previously conducted raids in several parts of the country in an attempt to arrest him."
AHM Fuad was accused by CID in a case over the alleged Tk 20 billion laundered by two Faridpur brothers - Awami League leader Sajjad Hossain Barkat and Imtiaz Hassan Rubel.
Fuad, who hails from the Nagarkanda Upazila's Bilnalia area, was removed from the post of Faridpur District Jubo League convener on June 26 last year after the allegations surfaced.
