Arrest Warrant Issued for Destiny 2000 Managing Director

  • May 14, 2012 -- Dhaka's Chief Metropolitan Magistrates Court issued an arrest warrant today for Destiny 2000's Managing Director and two others for falsifying an annual financial statement. Warrants were issued for Destiny 2000 Limited Managing Director Rafiqui Amin and directors Irfan Ahmed Sunny and Syed Sajjad Hossain.

    Earlier today, a lawsuit was filed claiming that Amin and the others submitted fake papers to the Joint Stock Company and Funds in June 2009 and transferred the shares to Destiny 2000 Limited.

    Bangladesh's National Board of Revenue has asked banks to close the accounts of Amin, his wife, and other Destiny 2000 executives. The company has been widely accused in the Bangladeshi media of fraud and illegal banking, and the country's parliamentary standing committee on finance ministry has asked the government to investigate.
