A Dhaka court authorized authorities to confiscate real estate assets belonging to Asaduzzaman Noor, the former cultural affairs minister. Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md Sabbir Faiz approved the Anti-Corruption Commission's request to seize four residential units and ten kathas of property. The judicial ruling also mandated the suspension of sixteen financial accounts registered under his name. Authorities arrested Noor at his Bailey Road home on September 15 last year, where he remains detained. The Anti-Corruption Commission initiated legal proceedings against him on July 30.
Investigators allege that Noor accumulated unauthorized assets valued at Tk5.37 crore through the misuse of governmental authority. Financial records reveal questionable monetary transfers totaling Tk158.78 crore across nineteen banking and lending institution accounts. The commission charges the former minister with illegally obtaining wealth from undisclosed revenue streams. Court documents detail extensive financial misconduct during his tenure in public service. These allegations represent significant breaches of public trust and financial regulations.
