Chairman of the Anti-Corruption Commission Ghulam Rahman has urged the media to identify the multi-level marketing (MLM) companies that are cheating people out of their millions.
"Please publish reports in the media against the MLM companies that are deceiving the people exploiting their belief. We'll take steps against all of them," he said while talking to journalists at his office on Wednesday.
Regarding Destiny-2000 Limited, an MLM company, he said a large number of people are involved with it but a few cunning people are looting the assets of the people.
"Some people are looting and laundering money in the name of MLM to rob general people and it should be prevented."
The anti-graft body on Wednesday quizzed three more officials about the reported fraudulence and irregularities by Destiny and its 37 associate organisations.
They are its directors Sajjad Hossain, Mezbah Uddin Swapan and Irfan Ahmed Sani.
Earlier on Apr 4, the ACC started the investigation into the irregularities of Destiny.
Several newspapers recently published reports on the company's alleged involvement in several irregularities, including illegal banking and collecting money from people through cheating.
On May 14, a Dhaka court issued a warrant of arrest for Destiny-2000 Chairman, Boishakhi Media Limited Managing Director and two other officials after businessman MNH Bulu, a shareholder of Boishakhi Media, filed a case against them.
On Apr 1, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Commerce Ministry decided to request the Finance Minister and the Bangladesh Bank Governor for action against Destiny-2000 and such other MLM companies.
A Bangladesh Bank inquiry recently found proof of illegal banking by Destiny Multipurpose Co-operative Society, a sister concern of Destiny-2000.
The National Board of Revenue froze five bank accounts, including that of Destiny Chairman Mohammad Rafiqul Amin, on Apr 25.
