BFIU Summons Bank Account Records of Content Creator Salman Muqtadir Following Studio Vandalism Incident
The Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) at Bangladesh Bank requests full financial disclosure regarding content creator Salman Muqtadir's accounts.

The Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) has directed all commercial banks across the country to submit comprehensive bank account details belonging to prominent content creator Salman Mohammad Muqtadir on Wednesday (September 30, 2026).

According to banking sources, the intelligence directive sent via official email requires institutions to produce Muqtadir's account opening forms (AOF), Know Your Customer (KYC) documentation, full transactional statements, interest earnings, and Tax Deductions at Source (TDS) under provisions of anti-money laundering regulations. The financial scrutiny follows widespread public discussion after unidentified miscreants vandalized Muqtadir's studio and office space. Initial public remarks by Muqtadir alleging extortion attempts by political operatives were later retracted, generating significant commentary across social media platforms. Addressing the matter, Prime Minister’s Information and Broadcasting Advisor Zahed-ur Rahman expressed expectation that influential digital figures and online content creators conduct their public statements and actions with greater responsibility moving forward.
