The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed a case against Radwan Mujib Siddiq, son of Sheikh Rehana—the sister of the ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina—accusing him of acquiring illegal assets worth nearly Tk 3 crore and conducting suspicious financial transactions exceeding Tk 12.5 crore.
On Sunday (July 27), Md. Abdullah Al Mamun, Deputy Director of the ACC’s Dhaka Coordinated District Office, filed the case. A senior ACC official has confirmed the development.
According to the case documents, Radwan Mujib Siddiq amassed assets worth approximately Tk 2.89 crore that are inconsistent with his known sources of income. Despite lacking any registered business, he allegedly engaged in suspicious transactions amounting to over Tk 12.48 crore through three bank accounts to conceal the origins of illicit funds.
He has been charged under Section 27(1) of the Anti-Corruption Act, 2004, and Sections 4(2) and 4(3) of the Money Laundering Prevention Act, 2012.
Earlier, on March 10, the ACC submitted eight separate charge sheets against members of the family of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Sheikh Rehana. The charges involve former State Minister Sharif Ahmed, the former personal secretary Salauddin, and 14 officials from the Ministry of Housing and Public Works related to the allocation of a 60-katha plot in Purbachal. Radwan Mujib Siddiq is among the accused in these ongoing cases.
Separately, on July 17, the ACC filed four cases against Tariq Ahmed Siddiq, former defense advisor to Sheikh Hasina and uncle of Radwan Mujib, along with his wife and two daughters. The allegations include illegal accumulation of assets worth over Tk 62 crore, money laundering, and suspicious bank transactions.
The cases detail illegal assets worth Tk 28.58 crore in the name of Tariq Siddiq; Tk 25.76 crore under his wife Shahin Siddiq; and Tk 3.37 crore and Tk 4.02 crore under their daughters Nurin Tasnia Siddiq and Bushra Siddiq, respectively.
