CID to investigate on Sadeeq Agro owner

The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has started an investigation against Mohammadpur Sadeeq Agro owner, Mohammad Imran Hossain, for illegal import of prohibited Brahman cattle and money laundering activities involving Tk 133 crore.
Despite the Brahman cattle being banned under Bangladesh Animal Resource Act, Imran Hossain allegedly imported and sold the cattle during the previous government, a matter that had been discussed multiple times but no action was taken.
Additional DIG (Organised Crime unit) of CID Ekramul Habib came up with the remarks on Tuesday afternoon at a press conference at its Malibagh headquarters in the capital Dhaka.
A team of CID on Monday arrested chairman of Sadeeq Agro Imran Hossain from Malibagh area in connection with a Tk 133 crore money laundering case. Earlier in the morning, CID filed a case with Mohammadpur Police station accusing Imran Hossain and his associate Touhidul Alam Zenith under the Money Laundering Act.
