10 years jail for drug lord

A drug lord deposited money into his family members’ bank accounts and purchased luxury cars in order to launder the profits he made from his illicit trade, the High Criminal Court heard.

The man is said to have been caught selling drugs and was sentenced to 10 years behind bars. He was also found in possession of BD10,000 cash. However, further investigations into the case unearthed that the man was involved in money laundering too.

The defendant had earlier denied he was implicated in selling drugs, affirming that he was only consuming them. But it was established that the man wasn’t not only peddling drugs, but also attempting to launder the money he earned from selling drugs.
