He built a mountain of wealth with a fraudulent marriage,
Additional Police Superintendent Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib led the brutal suppression of the July-August student movement in Noakhali. His police superintendent was Md. Asaduzzaman. Although he was arrested, Additional Police Superintendent Rajib, who led the operation, is still in the police force with authority. Although a case has been filed against him, he has only been transferred from Noakhali to Khulna. Citizen committees at various levels, including the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, have expressed their anger over the fact that no legal action has yet been taken against this police officer who brutally attacked the student crowd in Noakhali.
It was learned from various petitions filed by the victims of the local people to the Ministry and the Police Opening Authority that Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib (BP-8313159396) was posted in the Bangladesh Police Force as the first child on January 22, 2022. In Begumganj Circle of Noakhali district, which is known as the main base of BNP-Jamaat. Since joining RAB as a cadre in 2013, he has become a fearsome figure in eliminating BNP-Jamaat political parties on behalf of Awami League. He was not only busy suppressing the opposition, but also earned all the illegal money with both hands. And with this money, there is a rumor in the police and local people that he has become the owner of immense wealth in various parts of the country including the capital, in different names and anonymously.
It is alleged that this police officer was the one who ordered the cases, disappearances, and murders against BNP-Jamaat camps in Noakhali, especially in Begumganj, Chaumuhani, Senbag, Sonaimuri, Companyganj, Kabirhat. He was once working in Mercantile Bank and due to his Awami League cadre, he developed friendship with former MP Morshedul Alam Chowdhury and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader. As a reward for his dedication to suppressing the opposition political forces, Obaidul Quader was posted to his home district and Morshedul Alam’s constituency, Noakhali district, namely Senbagh police station, Begumganj circle.
Here, he served as the DB of Noakhali district in addition to the main crime zone of the police. Former Superintendent of Police of Noakhali district Md. Shahidul Islam and arrested SP Md. Asaduzzaman were friends of the 25th batch, so Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib was a very trusted tool of both of them. Under the direct supervision of these two SPs, he got involved in many immoral and illegal businesses due to the work of crime and DB. He built a huge business by stealing cows without getting caught, running drugs, dealing in yaba, smuggling weapons, threatening the BNP-Jamaat party, filing cases, keeping them locked up in the so-called mirror room, etc. If his demands could not be met, many innocent people had to become accused in various cases.
The investigation revealed that on August 31, 2022, BNP Central Vice Chairman Barkat Ullah Bulu was present at the BNP protest rally in Noakhali to protest the killing of two leaders of the Volunteer Party, but under the leadership of Rajib, who was in charge of the DB, the police arrested 12 BNP leaders and activists from Begumganj, Senbag, Sonaimuri and Sadar upazilas of Noakhali.
On September 17 of the same year, the leaders and activists took out a peaceful protest procession to protest the beheading of BNP Central Vice Chairman Barkat Ullah Bulu on his way from Begumganj to Dhaka and the attack on 6 people including his wife Shamima Barkat Lucky. In the process, the police lathi-charged them from behind without any reason, snatched banners, and injured many leaders and activists, including Upazila Vice-President Mofizur Rahman. At that time, the police arrested 30 leaders and activists of Jubo Dal and Chhatra Dal on the orders of Rajib.
On the other hand, on October 15, 2023, Jamaat held a peaceful meeting in Begumganj Upazila on the occasion of the 12th National Parliament Election. The police surrounded the meeting and, on Rajib’s orders, arrested 40 leaders and activists and took them to the police station and filed regular cases against them and sent them to court. 15 days later, the police arrested 30 leaders and activists of BNP Jamaat in Noakhali again on October 31. In addition, 153 leaders and activists of BNP Jamaat and its affiliates were arrested in 3 days during that time. On November 19, a BNP procession was attacked in Noakhali. 20 leaders and activists were shot in the attack. The leaders and activists were shot in the chest, back, and hands. This incident was also caused by the district’s Additional Superintendent of Police (Begumganj Circle) Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib. Later, on November 21, Rajib conducted a drive in various places in Begumganj Upazila of Noakhali and arrested 25 more BNP leaders and 2 Jamaat leaders and activists on charges of sabotage. This was a daily story for Rajib to suppress opposition.
Rajiv received the PPM Medal as a reward immediately after the election for filing a case in absentia against BNP workers during the 2024 elections, bolstered by the affection of the Sheikh Hasina government.
The investigation found that like Alep Uddin of the 31st batch, Rajib of the 31st batch worked in a special unit like RAB for more than 9 years due to detention, disappearance, murder and extortion. He was in RAB-1, RAB-2, Dhaka and RAB Forces Headquarters. It is said that under the influence of invisible power, he came to the Intelligence Wing, RAB Forces Headquarters as a Senior Assistant Director along with various units under the umbrella of the discussed Ziaul Ahsan and Khairul Islam. It is known that Ziaul Ahsan and Rajib’s village house is in the same district Jhalakathi. While in RAB, he was directly involved in the suppression of BNP, Jamaat-Shibir and opposition, becoming a confidant of the Awami government and its superiors. He earned huge money through extortion by threatening to crossfire. He received the prestigious PPM medal of Bangladesh Police for his aggressive attitude against BNP, Jamaat, and Shibir. His financial condition changed abnormally during his service in RAB. According to relevant sources, he was admitted to the Economics Department of Dhaka University in the 00-01 year and lived in Sergeant Zahurul Haque Hall. He got a job in the then Jalil Saheb’s famous bank, Mercantile Bank, under the Chhatra League quota only because of his student politics. When he was 32, he joined the police cadre in the 31st BCS on January 15, 2013. Although there were news and complaints in various newspapers during the then Awami government, the complaints disappeared due to power, no action was taken against it.
Anti-discrimination student movement: On August 5 last year, the Begumganj Circle Office of the Additional Superintendent of Police of Noakhali was completely burned down, because the Circle Officer and the then OC of Begumganj Police Station, Md. Anwar Hossain and BNP have carried out inhuman repression on Jamaat and tried to disrupt the anti-discrimination student movement. It is sad and alarming that Rajib is currently trying to join the BNP to cover up the injustices of the past.
Novel fraud and embezzlement tactics
Rajib’s family sources reveal that Additional Superintendent of Police Rajib, despite having a wife and children, secretly married a female BCS cadre officer in 2023 according to Islamic Sharia law and told his second wife through various tricks that he had a previous marriage, with which he divorced in 2022. Later, Rajib married his second wife in a registry on 27/02/2024. When the video of his marriage, obtained through a family relative of Rajib, who did not want to be named, was observed, it is seen that Rajib also signed stating that he does not have a wife present, which is evidenced in the Kazi’s volume B. According to Rajib’s Begumganj quarter and police sources, even after the contract and even after the marriage, the second wife often visited Noakhali, but Rajib did not introduce her to anyone as his wife. On the contrary, mental and physical torture for dowry began. According to the case and Rajib’s family sources, the second wife forced Rajib to pay 21,40,000 taka to settle the debts of his various friends, and later Rajib said that the money was dowry money and would not return it. In addition, Rajiv, citing various excuses such as 1st wife’s debt of 14 lakhs, sister’s debt of 22 lakhs, Shahjalal Islami Bank, Chowmuhani branch loan of 5 lakhs, 17 lakhs to buy land, and so on, another 58 lakh taka for the purchase of a private car to move around Dhaka, and when the second wife expressed her complete inability to pay, he beat her, tried to kill her, burned her hands and feet with cigarette fire, beat her on the neck, chest and face, made her bleed, and kicked her in the abdomen to kill her 2-month-old unborn child. Later, it was found that Rajiv has been officially using the name of his so-called ex-wife, Nigar Sultana (Sharmin), as his wife everywhere, and even after getting married for the second time, he has not mentioned it anywhere.
Police Headquarters sources said that Rajib has been regularly withdrawing ration in the name of his ex-wife Nigar Sultana (Sharmin) by resorting to false deception. On the other hand, Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib issued an official passport from Noakhali Passport Office on 11/4/2023 AD, whose passport number is E 00107671, in which he wrote the name of Nigar Sultana (Sharmin) as his wife, in addition, Nigar Sultana (Sharmin) registered TIN from NBR on 31/05/2023, where she also wrote her husband’s name Mr. Nazmul Hasan Rajib, even her passport whose number is B00014747, also has her husband’s name Nazmul Hasan Rajib. Both of them have mentioned themselves as husband and wife in their very important documents and official documents. According to family relatives and hospital sources, he fell ill while staying at the house of his alleged divorced 1st wife on the night of 24/02/24 and was taken to Anwar Khan Modern Hospital. A complaint by the Inspector General of Police’s office shows that on 21/03/2024, he stayed with his 1st wife in room 607 of the Chittagong Police Officers’ Mess. That is, while Sharmin was his wife, Mr. Nazmul Hasan Rajib fraudulently concealed the fact that his marriage was valid and, with the greed of money and property, resorted to deceitful tactics and conspired to take the shelter of a fake student and get the money from his 2nd wife. Despite being a high-ranking officer, he has extramarital affairs with various women. A forensic investigation of his mobile phone will reveal all his crimes.
Government employee Rajib’s workplace business and potential assets:
Detailed investigation revealed that Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib’s 1st father-in-law AKM Shafiqur Rahman built 5 katha land and 2 units 7-storey 2 houses in the name of 78, South Basabo, Sabujbagh, Dhaka. The cost shown in this is only 1,43,33,550/-. In this house, he took 2 separate flats in the name of his 1st wife Nigar Sultana (Sharmin). On the other hand, in 78, South Basabo, Sabujbagh, Dhaka, his 1st wife Mr. Nigar Sultana (Sharmin) opened her income tax return in 2023 in Tax Zone: 05, known as the Capital Zone, despite the fact that the father and daughter have the same address, they took advantage of different zones because they resorted to dishonest means to legalize Rajib’s illegal money. Local sources and caretaker Rabiul learned that there is a dispute over this flat house being given to Rajib by his 1st wife and father-in-law.
According to the provisions of Rules 7, 11, 17, 17(3) of the Government Servants Conduct Rules 1979, “No government servant shall engage in any profitable profession/business, either at his own place of work or elsewhere, himself or his family.” But Rajib, abusing his job power, engaged in land/plot sales and other businesses in Begumganj Police Station, Noakhali District, and his workplace, Chaumuhani and Maijdi, while on the one hand, he has violated the government service law and on the other hand, he is laundering the black money he earned dishonestly.
It is known from confidential sources that he has at least 8 immovable houses and land worth 7 crore taka in Begumganj Sub-Registrar Office, Mia Pul Bazar and Chaumuhoni Mouza, near College Road, and Narottampur Mouza, Begumganj Upazila, District Noakhali, in at least 8 documents. It is known that there are 17 plots in this land. The purchase period of this land: From January 2021 to March 2024. Nazmul Hasan Rajib was posted as a price posting in Begumganj Circle, Noakhali on 22/01/2022 and when the clever Rajib realized that if he did business in his own name as a government employee, he would be caught, he got involved in the land business and chose to whiten the black money of his bribery and corruption by buying and selling land anonymously in the names of his brothers, mother, sister, and sister’s husband. He built a wooden house in Shimultala, Nalchiti, next to the Bishwa Road from Barishal to Barguna in the name of his parents. Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib has 2 plots of 10 katha in POHS-3 and POHS-2, worth 1,75,00,000/- Taka.
Sources say that Rajib bought land in the name of his mother and brother and took a power of attorney to sell it, sometimes in his own name or in the name of someone else. In this, he was assisted by Mr. Md. Mosharef Hossain (Rimon), Proprietor: Messrs. Chayanika Electronics, Chaumuhani Bazar, Upazila Begumganj, District Noakhali. Mr. Rajib has invested crores of taka in Rimon’s business as a sleeping partner. Another partner is Mr. Tuhin, who runs a dealership business for Abul Khair’s company.
With Rimon, Rajib’s mother Mosa. Khaleda Akhter (Lili) husband Md. Abdul Khalek Fakir, ID No. 4227305270239, Sang Basa/Holding-93, Kalabari Road, Nalchiti, Jhalakathi, showed several business contracts for land purchase and sale of 20 lakhs, 30 lakhs, 40 lakhs, showing many other businesses starting from land business, although he never filed any income tax return despite having businesses worth crores of taka in his name to hide his income. Basically, all these are bribes and other illegal earnings of Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib.
Another surprising thing is that Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Rajib, whose TIN number is 480736657004, opened his 1st TIN on 28/11/2016, Tax Zone 4, Circle -76, 5 years after joining the police service. Even after opening the TIN, he did not file any return. Then after another 7 years, i.e. in 2022-2023, he used his power to enter the income tax returns from 2016 to 2022 in the return register of various years through one of his training mates. During the investigation, if the handwriting of the said entries and the related documents are verified, this will be proved.
Imran Hossain (Imu), he works at United Insurance Company, Camellia House, 22, Kazi Nazrul Islam Avenue, Dhaka. He lives with his 2 sons in a flat of 1100 sq ft at 480, Moghbazar, Dhaka, which his brother Rajib bought for him. Imran Hossain is the younger brother of Imru (only 1 year younger) and he is involved in stock market manipulation with Rajib to obtain his illegal money. He has more than 100 IPO shares in his name and name, there is a syndicate of placement shares – secondary shares – right shares.
Md. Mahmudul Hasan, the net worth of his younger sister’s husband is 89,50,561/- taka. His village is in Khejurtala village of Barguna district, father is Mr. Abul Kashem Hawlader, mother is Kulsum Bibi, family of 8 siblings, financial condition is low, one brother is a sub-inspector of the police. Rajib also legalizes money through this son-in-law and sister’s husband. Rajib’s younger sister, Mr. Sanjana Binte Khalek (Shubhra), joined Bangladesh Krishi Bank as a supervisor and in the name of giving loans to the bank’s customers and giving good investigation reports in field audits, she accepted bribes from the customers of Jhalakathi’s Nalchiti branch, Taltala branch and Jhalakathi branch by making deals and accepting bribes from them. Here, when the customers come to cash their saved money in DPS, FDR, no one is spared from Sanjana’s bad behavior and bribe money in her hands. She lives in a 6-storey Alisan house with a lift in Jhalakathi. She pays for the education of her two daughters. She comes to Dhaka almost every week. She gave 43 lakh taka to her middle brother Rajib in the name of lending, out of which 21,50,000 taka was taken as a loan in the income tax file, which is basically the money she and her brother earned illegally. Those concerned are hoping that a proper investigation of these assets will bring out the cat in the bag.
He will be attached to the Range DIG’s office, Sylhet, during the temporary suspension.
