A court here today convicted and sentenced BNP acting chairman Tarique Rahman to nine-year imprisonment and his wife Zubaida Rahman to three-year jail in a case filed for amassing illegal wealth of Taka 4.81 crore and concealing information about the wealth.
Dhaka Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md Asaduzzaman pronounced the judgment in a crowded courtroom this afternoon. The verdict was delivered in absence of the accused as both of them have been absconding.
The court in its judgment said Zubaida aided her husband in committing the crimes.
Tarique was sentenced to three-year imprisonment under section 26 (2) and six-year jail under section 27 (1) of the Anti-Corruption Commission Act, 2004. Both the sentences of jail will run concurrently, the judgment said. Zubaida on the other hand was sentenced to three-year imprisonment under section 27 (1) of the act.বিস্তারিত
