The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has found Tk 83 million 'undisclosed money' in three accounts of a superintendant of police (SP) and his wife.
ACC alleged that the police official, Faridpur district SP Subhash Chandra Saha, earned the sum of money through corruption after he joined the police department.
He did not mention the sources, ownership and control of the money in his wealth statement that he submitted earlier to the commission.
Subhash's wife Rina Chowdhury also contributed to the crime by hiding it, the FIR said.
ACC Assistant Director Abdul Wadud filed a case on Tuesday against Subhash Chandra and his wife Rina Chowdhury with the Bongshal Police Station in Dhaka, a local media report said.
According to the case details, Subhash Chandra deposited Tk 83 million with three joint accounts with his spouse at Bongshal, Elephant Road and Jossore branches of One Bank Limited.
The case was filed under the Money-Laundering Prevention Act 2012.
Meanwhile, bdnews24.com reports, police headquarters has removed Saha from his post and brought him back to Dhaka.
Additional Superintendent of Police Aminur Rahman has confirmed the removal.
Saha had been leading the Faridpur district police for the past eight months. Before that, he was the additional superintendent of police in Kushtia and Jessore.
