A special judge’s court has sentenced former state minister Amanullah Aman to 13 years’ imprisonment and his wife Sabera Aman to three years’ imprisonment and ordered confiscation of their wealth of Tk 9,94,63,741 which the court found disproportionate to their known sources of income.
In addition, Aman will have to pay a fine of Tk 10 lakh or, in default, suffer one more year in jail. Sabera Aman was jailed for assisting her husband in corruption.
M Firoz Alam, judge of special judge’s court-1 of Dhaka, on Thursday handed them the sentences for submitting false wealth statements and owning assets beyond their known sources of income.
