Additional inspector general of police of Criminal Investigation Department Mohammad Ali Mia on Sunday said that CID would submit the charge sheet of the Bangladesh Bank reserve heist after completing the investigation within two or one month.

He said these while talking to reporters after unveiling the cover of a book at CID headquarters at Malibagh in Dhaka.


Replying to a question about how much money has been laundered in the past one year, the CID official said that they had no information about it as the Bangladesh Bank was monitoring it.

Apart from this, ‘We will take legal action if anyone files a case over what we saw at the airport on May 31. We will bring not only the trafficking case but also the illegal sending of workers or the transfer of money illegally converted under the money laundering case.’

He also said that the godfathers of the drug trade would be brought to book through special methods.

The amassed properties of the godfathers of the drug trade were brought under legal action. Some of these were confiscated through freezing accounts while some of these were seized, he said.

‘Earlier, we used to bring drug users and retailers under the law but now we are bringing the godfathers through special methods through freezing or seizing properties,’ he added.

Mentioning that there is a human trafficking cell in CID which is kept open round the clock, the CID additional IGP said that legal steps were being taken against the human trafficking gang after getting a complaint.
