Bangladesh Bank's Assistant Spokesperson Mohammad Shahriar Siddiqui has said, all personal lockers of Bangladesh Bank have been frozen. At the same time, the locker services of the Bank also been suspended.
With this update, no one can put anything in the lockers anymore, and those who have put it in cannot pick it up. The central bank has taken this decision in response to Anti-Corruption Commission's request. Recently, in a raid, the Commission recovered a huge amount of illegal gold and foreign currency from the locker of former Bangladesh Bank Deputy Governor SK Sur.
These lockers were allocated in the names of current and retired officials and employees of Bangladesh Bank. Last Sunday, ACC Director Kazi Sayemuzzaman sent a letter, where he requested the central Bank to keep all lockers freeze.
