The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has formally requested the Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) to provide all relevant documents pertaining to local and international financial transactions linked to former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, her son Sajeeb Wazed Joy, younger sister Sheikh Rehana, and Rehana's daughter, UK lawmaker Tulip Siddiq.

In a letter sent by the ACC's investigation team on Tuesday (24 December), details were sought regarding offshore bank accounts and other financial statements connected to these individuals.

Confirming the development, a senior ACC official stated that the investigation team has also approached the Election Commission Office and the Immigration and Passport Office for access to their personal documents.

The move signals an intensifying probe into the financial dealings of Hasina and her family members, both within Bangladesh and abroad.
