Two associates of infamous money launderer PK Halder, Basudev Banerjee and his wife Papia Banerjee, surrendered before a Dhaka court in 15 cases on Tuesday. They sought bail from Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Mohammad As-Shams Jaglul Hossain. Their bail hearing was scheduled for later in the day. The Supreme Court had previously ordered them to surrender by June 4.

In 2021, the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) charged Basudev Banerjee and Papia Banerjee, along with PK Halder, with embezzlement.
