DHAKA, December 13 – The U.S. Embassy in Dhaka, in partnership with the Supreme Court of Bangladesh and the Ministry of Law, launched the Money Laundering Bench Book today at Le Meridien Hotel. 

Developed with support from the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development, Assistance and Training (OPDAT), this resource offers practical guidance for judges, prosecutors, and investigators handling money laundering cases.
