A Dhaka court has fixed 23 September for the submission of the investigation report in a case filed against 15 individuals, including former Bangladesh cricket captain and ex-lawmaker Shakib Al Hasan, over allegations of share market manipulation, fraud and money laundering.
The court of Dhaka Senior Metropolitan Special Judge Shahjahan Kabir passed the order today (27 July) after the Anti-Corruption Commission failed to submit the probe report, ACC official Akkas Ali told The Business Standard.
According to the case statement, the accused allegedly manipulated the market through illegal speculative trading, gambling, and spreading rumours, conducting multiple questionable transactions using their own beneficiary owner (BO) accounts to serve their personal interests.
The complaint alleged that general investors were defrauded as a result, suffering total financial losses amounting to Tk256.97 crore.
