Career

[edit]

Haque was elected to the Jatiya Sangsad from Rajshahi-4 in 2008 and on 5 January 2014 as a Bangladesh Awami League candidate.[2]

On 16 September 2014, Bangladesh Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) recommended charging him with corruption regarding his company, Ena Enterprise.[3]

In January 2017, Haque criticized Iqbal Sobhan Chowdhury, the editor of The Daily Observer, after the newspaper published a report accusing Haque of being involved with the drug trade.[4]

In September 2017, local Awami League leaders in Rajshahi accused him of fomenting divisions in the Awami League and creating fractional feuds.[5]

In June 2020, Ayesha Akter Liza (aged 34–35) accused Haque of deception and forcefully aborting her fetus. She had claimed they got married on 30 April 2013 and registered on 11 May 2018. Haque acknowledged the marriage but claimed they got divorced on 23 April 2020.[6][7]

In September 2024, ACC decided to launch an investigation into corruption allegations against Haque accusing him of money laundering, irregularities in projects, and illegally amassing wealth.[8][9]
