A court on Wednesday showed Md Khairul Bashar, the owner of BSB Global Network, arrested in eight more cases for his alleged involvement in cheating students and embezzling money by luring them with promises of higher education abroad.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Zihadur Rahman passed the order after the Investigation Officer (IO) of Gulshan Police Station submitted a petition in this regard.
Earlier in the day, Bashar was produced before the court following the completion of a 10-day remand in a cheating case filed with Gulshan Police Station. The IO also appealed to the court to send him to jail.
On July 14, Bashar was arrested from the Dhanmondi area and placed on a 10-day remand the following day.
According to court sources, Bashar and his associates collected Tk 18,29,57,680 from 141 students by promising to send them to countries including Canada, Australia, and the United States through newspaper advertisements.
Preliminary investigations revealed that BSB Global Network has already misappropriated over Tk 53 crore from 448 students.
