A Dhaka court has extended the deadline to September 23 for the submission of the investigation report in a financial misconduct case naming former Bangladesh cricket captain Shakib Al Hasan alongside 14 other individuals over alleged stock market manipulation, fraud and money laundering.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Shahjahan Kabir issued the directive following the Anti-Corruption Commission's (ACC) failure to present its investigative findings on the scheduled date.

The case was originally launched on June 17, 2025, by ACC Assistant Director Sajjad Hossain.

Through these unlawful practices, the defendants allegedly siphoned off a total of BDT 256.97 crore, an amount explicitly classified by investigators as "proceeds of crime".
