Illegal money exchange offices raided in Dhaka

The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of Bangladesh Police is carrying out raids against money exchange offices across Dhaka, which had been operating without the Bangladesh Bank’s approval.

Several teams of CID’s Organised Crime Unit raided such offices in Gulshan, Uttara, Ashkona, and Adabar areas on Tuesday afternoon, CID’s Deputy Inspector General (Organised Crime) Kushum Dawan told The Business Post.

“An operation is going on against the money exchange offices that are not listed with the Bangladesh Bank. We will provide further details after the raid is concluded,” he added.
