DHAKA, April 23, 2025 (BSS) - A court here today imposed a travel ban on 
former Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports Arif Khan Joy, his wife Sonia Arif 
Soma, their children Zinedin Yajid Zidan and Umme Sawda Khan over graft 
allegations.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib passed the 
order allowing a plea of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

The anti-graft body, in its plea, said it is probing allegations against Joy 
for amassing illegal wealth and learned that the accused along with his wife 
and children may try to flee the country to evade justice.

"So travel ban should be imposed on them immediately," the plea added.
