SWISS BANK ACCOUNTS : Moosa named ‘Abu Daid’: ACC

The Anti-Corruption Commission has asked the central bank to seek information from the central bank of Switzerland on ‘Abu Daid Mohammad’, an alias apparently used by controversial Bangladeshi businessman Moosa Bin Shamsher.
The Swiss central bank had earlier responded to a Bangladesh Bank query on Moosa’s money in Swiss banks saying they did not find any account bearing the name Moosa in any Swiss bank.
The commission is ‘aware’ of Moosa using the name ‘Abu Daid Mohammad’ while opening accounts in Swiss banks, which is why the central bank of Switzerland did not find any account in his name, an ACC director told New Age.
He said the commission already sent a letter in this regard to the central bank.
The commission official said they were preparing to interrogate Moosa again in December over allegations of money laundering.
In December, Moosa claimed the Swiss Bank had frozen Tk 51,000 crore from his account for irregular transactions while he was interrogated by the commission for the first time.
The BFID also suspected that Moosa might have accounts in Swiss banks in other names.
During ACC’s interrogation Moosa said his money was deposited in the Swiss Bank between 2006 and 2007. He claimed his income had been generated in foreign countries.
Moosa, reportedly an international arms broker, is chairman of a company named Defence Advancement and Trading Company.
