ACC sues Unipay2u distributor, 5 others

Chittagong branch of the Anti-Corruption Commission on Tuesday filed nine cases against a distributor of Unipay2u Bangladesh, a multi-level marketing (MLM) company, and five others for misappropriating Tk 20.54 crore.
The Unipay2u Bangladesh distributor is Hamidul Haque Manik hailed from Chakoria in Cox's Bazar, reports our Chittagong correspondent.
The other accused are Hamidul's elder brother Kamal Hossain, sister-in-law Forkan Ara Begum, father-in-law Abdul Gofur, cousin Ayesha Begum and Jahangir Alam, an assistant officer of First Security Islami Bank of Potherhat branch in Rawjan, Chittagong.
M Sirajul Haque, a deputy assistant director of the ACC, filed the cases, said Maj Faisal Pasha, a director of the ACC.
The accused misappropriated the amount by deceiving common people, he added.
Of the cases, three were filed with Chakoria Police Station, two with Khulshi Police Station while one each with Panchlaish, Chandgaon, Raujan and Kotwali stations in Chittagong.
Unipay2u Bangladesh started off in 2009 with an announcement that if anyone invested in the company, the amount would double in just 10 months. The MLM company on its website said it had invested in gold mines in Africa, Europe and the USA, though it was illegal without the central bank's permission.
The government suspended operations of the MLM firm in January 2011 after hundreds of investors took to the streets in Dhaka and elsewhere in the country demanding their money back
