Monir Hossain, the former Assistant Private Secretary (APS) to Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, has been implicated in corruption and irregularities. The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) filed a case against him in January 2025. The allegations state that he accumulated illegal assets worth 18 crore 82 lakh 56 thousand 142 BDT. Additionally, it was found that there were suspicious transactions totaling 31 crore 31 lakh 70 thousand 834 BDT across 12 of his bank accounts. Following an ACC application, the court has ordered the seizure of his immovable assets worth 5 crore 17 lakh 35 thousand BDT and the freezing of eight of his bank accounts.

Monir Hossain has land and flats in various places in the country, both in his name and in others’. His income tax records show assets worth 5 crore 44 lakh 35 thousand BDT, but the ACC sources claim the actual value of his assets has been underreported in these records. Apart from the income tax documents, he is believed to have vast wealth that could exceed hundreds of crores.

The ACC has discovered that Monir Hossain used his power and influence to extract money from individuals and organizations. Under the leadership of ACC Deputy Director Md Jahangir Alam, an investigation team has been formed to probe these allegations.

Currently, Monir Hossain is a fugitive, and his ancestral home is in Charfassion, Bhola. The ACC is continuing its investigation and legal action is underway.
