-The Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) has seized all bank accounts of former Bangladesh national cricket team captain and ex-member of parliament Shakib Al Hasan. Bangladesh Bank spokesperson Husne Ara Shikha confirmed this information to the media on Wednesday. Earlier, on October 2, the BFIU had requested all bank account details of Shakib Al Hasan, his wife Umme Ahmed Shishir and his business entities as part of an investigation into alleged stock market manipulation and financial irregularities. Shakib contested the 12th general election from his hometown Magura as a candidate for the Awami League and won a seat in parliament. On August 5, the president dissolved parliament following the ouster of Sheikh Hasina, resulting in Shakib losing his parliamentary seat.
