A Dhaka court on Tuesday, March 11, ordered to freeze 124 bank accounts linked to ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina, her son Sajeeb Wazed Joy and daughter Saima Wazed Putul, sister Sheikh Rehana, and other family members.
The court also ordered to attach immovable properties of Joy, Putul, Rehana, Radwan Mujib Siddiq and Tulip Rizwana Siddiq.
The properties include a Gulshan flat owned by Tulip, Joy and Putul's Dhanmandi house named Sudha Sadan, Rehana's six katha plot in Kaliakoir, Gazipur, and six flats with parking spaces owned by Radwan Mujib Siddiq in Gulshan and Mohakhali.
Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the order, allowing a petition of the Anti-Corruption Commission, ACC.
Confirming the matter to BSS, ACC Deputy Director (public relations) Aktarul Islam said the ousted prime minister and her family members are trying to hand over or transfer the said movable properties and that is why their accounts should be frozen.
"They are also trying to hand over or transfer the immovable properties, hindering the investigation and that is why those also should be attached," the plea added.
