A Dhaka court has ordered the seizure of cricketer Shakib Al Hasan's assets in connection with a dishonored cheque case involving Tk 4.14 crore.
Additional Chief Metro-politan Magistrate Ziadur Rahman issued the order on Monday, following a petition from the plaintiff.
According to the case details, Shakib, as chairman of Shakib Al Hasan Agro Farm Ltd., secured a Tk 2.5 crore loan from IFIC Bank's Banani branch in 2017. The company later issued two cheques worth Tk 4.14 crore, which bounced due to insufficient funds.
Following repeated legal notices, IFIC Bank filed a case against Shakib and three others. While other accused secured bail, Shakib failed to appear in court, leading to an arrest warrant. On March 24, as police failed to submit the execution report of the warrant, the plaintiff's lawyer sought asset seizure, which the court granted.
