The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) today (11 July) approved a charge sheet against Bengal Group Chairman Abul Khair Litu in a case filed over illegally acquiring Tk90.32 crore in wealth.

ACC Deputy Director (Special Enquiry & Investigation-2) Md Kamruzzaman filed the chargesheet, while ACC Deputy Director Monayem Hossain filed the case as plaintiff.

According to ACC sources, the case was filed on 17 April 2023 for concealing information of acquiring wealth worth Tk11.12 lakh and amassing wealth worth Tk90.32 crore beyond their known sources of income.

However, according to the charge sheet, the ACC in its investigation found that Abul Khair concealed information of Tk12.42 lakh and acquired wealth worth Tk90.32 crore beyond his known sources of income.

The ACC filed the case against Litu under sections 26(2) and 27(1) of the ACC Act, 2004.

Officials close to the investigation said the chargesheet will soon be sent to the court.

Case filed against wife 

The ACC also filed a case against Abul Khair's wife, Mahua Khair, 9 July on charges of amassing illegal wealth worth Tk2.53 crore and concealing information about the wealth.

According to the case statement, Mahua submitted her wealth statement to the ACC, showing her movable and immovable wealth worth Tk6.66 crore, according to the charge sheet. 

Scrutinising the wealth information, the ACC found that Mahua Khair amassed wealth worth Tk7.24 crore but the commission found legal sources of income against Tk4.71 crore.
