Court orders to attach Tk 57 lakh’s flat of Putul

A Dhaka court has ordered to attach a flat of Tk 57 in the capital's Gulshan belonging to ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's daughter Saima Wazed Putul.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the order on Tuesday, granting an appeal of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

The anti-graft body in its plea said the accused has attempted to sell or change the ownership of the assets, and if she succeeds in doing so, the investigation will be hampered.

For thorough probe into the graft case, the ACC requested the court to attach the property and appoint a receiver to look after it.
