According to THE GUARDIAN investigation:

- Bangladeshi authorities are tracking approximately ￡13 billion in assets

- They've identified nearly ￡400 million worth of UK property owned by former regime associates

- Nazrul Mazumder (Nassa Group chairman) owns five Kensington properties worth ￡38 million

?Methods Used:

- Money was allegedly moved through the hundi system (informal money transfer)

- Dubai and Singapore were used as intermediary locations

- State-owned bank loans in Bangladesh were allegedly left unpaid

- Complex ownership structures involving multiple jurisdictions were used

?Current Status:

- Travel bans have been imposed on several individuals

- Multiple investigations are ongoing by various agencies including:

? - Criminal Investigation Department (CID)

? - Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU)

? - National Board of Revenue

? - Anti-Corruption Commission

?UK Implications:

- Questions raised about the effectiveness of UK's anti-money laundering regulations

- Major British banks, law firms, and estate agents were involved in these transactions

- MPs are calling for stronger supervision and enforcement of financial regulations

- The case is seen as a test of UK's ambition to become an anti-corruption leader

- Transparency International warns that London remains a "premier destination for suspicious wealth"

?The situation has gained particular attention following Bangladesh's "Monsoon Revolution" which led to Sheikh Hasina's exile in August, with the interim government now seeking to recover assets they claim were illicitly acquired during her 16-year reign.?
