DHAKA, March 3, 2025 (BSS) - A court here today ordered to freeze nine bank 
accounts of former mayor of Cumilla City Corporation (CCC) Tahseen Bahar 
Shuchona with Taka 1.59 crore in those accounts.

The court also ordered to attach a flat owned by her in the capital's Uttara 
area.

Dhaka first Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge Ibrahim Miah passed the 
orders, allowing a plea filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

The anti-graft body in its plea said Shuchona during her tenure as CCC mayor 
amassed illegal wealth of Taka 3.04 crore and made suspicious transactions of 
Taka 42.58 crore through 16 bank accounts.

A case has already been lodged against her in this regard. But all the 
properties acquired by her have not been identified till now. 

The ACC said her immovable properties should be attached and bank accounts 
should be frozen, so that she cannot hand over or transfer that elsewhere.
