According to the case statement, a CID investigation found that the alleged laundering was carried out through Beximco Group's Autumn Loop Apparels Ltd and Peerless Garments Ltd.
Investigators alleged Autumn Loop Apparels failed to repatriate $28.32 lakh in export proceeds from three letters of credit (LCs) within the stipulated period.
The investigation found that the goods were exported to UAE-based RR Global Trading FZE, allegedly owned by Ahmed Shayan Fazlur Rahman and Ahmed Shahriar Rahman.
The CID alleged the exports were routed through a family-controlled company as part of a planned transfer of funds abroad.
The case was filed on 17 September 2024 by CID Sub-Inspector Ghulam Mostafa. After completing the investigation, CID Inspector Md Sayedur Rahman submitted the charge sheet against the six accused on 11 November 2025.
