The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has filed two separate cases against S Alam Group Chairman Mohammad Saiful Alam (S Alam) and his wife Farzana Parveen on charges of acquiring assets outside known sources of income.
The agency’s Director General Md. Akhter Hossain gave this information at a press conference at the ACC’s head office in Segunbagicha in the capital today. He said that two separate cases have been filed against Saiful Alam and his wife on charges of acquiring assets outside known sources of income worth Tk 1,540 crore.
ACC sources said that in the first case, Saiful Alam has been accused of acquiring illegal assets worth Tk 7,962,844,424. And in the second case, his wife Farzana Parveen has been accused of acquiring assets outside known sources of income worth Tk 7,435,714.
The case report states that information has been found about immovable and movable assets in various countries including Singapore, Cyprus, and the British Virgin Islands against Saiful Alam and his wife Farzana Parveen. However, since they are not included in the income tax documents, the ACC is calling these assets embezzlement.
