Matiur Rahman removed from NBR post after controversy
Matiur Rahman, president of NBR’s Customs, Excise and VAT Appellate Tribunal, has been transferred to the Internal Resources Division following a wealth controversy. The issue arose after his son posted about an expensive sacrificial goat, leading to questions about Matiur’s income and assets. Matiur initially denied the relationship, claiming conspiracy. Reports later suggested the young man is his second wife’s son. The government issued a circular for Matiur’s immediate transfer amid the ongoing controversy. Daily Star
