Dhaka, Sep 19 (V7N) – The High Court has instructed Bangladesh Bank to appoint a receiver to manage the properties of Beximco Group, owned by Salman F Rahman, and has also directed the central bank to repatriate money allegedly laundered by Rahman.

In an order issued on September 18, the court mandated Bangladesh Bank to report on the implementation of these directives within four weeks. The ruling followed a hearing held earlier on September 5, where the High Court bench comprising Justice AKM Asaduzzaman and Justice Muhammad Mahbub Ul Islam passed the order and issued a rule.

The High Court's written order includes instructions to appoint a receiver and attach all properties under the Beximco Group of Companies.

Advocate Masud AR Sobhan, along with Barrister Fatema Chowdhury, represented the petitioner during the hearing, while Deputy Attorney General Redwan Ahmed Ranjib appeared on behalf of the state.
