The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has received 11,630 complaints against individuals and organisations up to October this year, taking forward 960 of them.

ACC Commissioner Mia Md Ali Akbar Azizi shared the data at the commission’s conference room in Segunbagicha on Tuesday, during a session marking the agency’s anniversary.

He said 512 cases were opened between December 2024 and October 2025, with 2,191 people brought under charges.

During the same 11-month period, the anti-graft agency secured court orders to seize assets worth about Tk 33.6 billion in Bangladesh and Tk 965 million abroad.

A further Tk 222.3 billion was frozen domestically, while Tk 3.28 billion was frozen overseas.

According to the data, the ACC conducted 798 enforcement drives in these 11 months.

Of them, 188 led to decisions to launch inquiries, resulting in 28 cases.

Four “trap” cases were recorded, while 315 charge sheets were submitted involving 1,078 suspects. The period also saw 73 final reports filed.

A total of 249 cases were disposed of, including 126 convictions and 123 acquittals.

Courts imposed fines amounting to Tk 50.6 billion, and assets worth Tk 3.22 billion were confiscated.

Mohammad Abdul Momen took charge as ACC chairman in December last year during the political transition, along with two other commissioners.
