    Bangladesh Cricket Board Headquarters In Dhaka Raided – Cricket.com

    The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) was raided on April 15 (Tuesday) by the country’s Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on a complaint received from various sources, including the country’s media. 
    The complaint to which the ACC responded related to the previous regime at the helm of BCB, which was headed by Awami League leader Nazmul Hasan, who had fled the country in the wake of the bloody student protests that resulted in the overthrow of Sheikh Hasina’s government. 
    ACC’s assistant director, Al Amin, confirmed to the media that the raids were carried out because of three major complaints. 
    First amongst the complaints was mismanagement and fudging in the sale of Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) tickets. In the first eight seasons of the league, the BCB earned only about Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) 15 Cr, while after the regime change, ticket sales brought BDT 13 Cr in one season alone. 
    The second complaint related to the misappropriation of money during a program called ‘Mujib 100’ to celebrate the country’s father figure Mujib-Ur-Rahman’s 100th birth anniversary in 2020. The program was later shelved due to Covid. 
    And the last complaint pertained to fudging and bribery in Dhaka's third-division qualification tournament. The entry fees for the tournament was increased from BDT 50,000 to BDT 5 Lakhs. Due to this, not many teams entered the qualifying tournament and only teams with enough money. Sometimes only two in total would enter the tournament and get promotion to the third division.
    "We will file a report with the enforcement unit after verifying all these documents. The ACC will then decide what the next step will be. Every one of the ACC's raids is due to a specific complaint,” Al Amin was quoted as saying by ESPN Cricinfo.
