A Dhaka court has ordered the seizure of the income tax records of Lutful Tahmina Khan, wife of former Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, who was sentenced to death for crimes against humanity.

The order was issued by Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md. Sabbir Foyez on Monday following a request from the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), court assistant M Riaz Hossain said.

ACC Deputy Director and investigating officer Muhammad Zainal Abedin filed the request seeking the records.

According to the ACC petition, Lutful Tahmina Khan has allegedly acquired known illegal wealth amounting to Tk 154,694,591. It also alleges that she, with direct involvement, conducted suspicious transactions totaling Tk 437,774,500 through ten bank accounts in her name and partially owned companies, without legitimate sources of income.

These transactions are suspected to constitute money laundering under Sections 4(2) and 4(3) of the Money Laundering Prevention Act, 2012.

The ACC emphasized that seizing her income tax returns and related documents is essential for the proper investigation of the case.
