Badi, the lawmaker from Cox’s Bazar-4 constituency, was present in court on Wednesday. ACC Deputy Director Mohammad Abdus Sobhan started prosecution against the MP on Aug 21, 2014, on charges of acquiring assets worth around Tk 130 million by unlawful means. On May 7 last year, the ACC’s investigation officer Deputy Director Manjil Morshed submitted the chargesheet against Badi in court. A government investigation last year revealed that Badi controlled the principal point of trans-border entry of the contraband drug. The report by the DNC said that Badi controls the route and many others work under him in the illegal drug trade.
