Read it:
Bangladesh, 2009 to 2026. An elite anti-crime battalion kills seven people for a local politician; hackers take 101 million dollars from the central bank's account in New York, and the investigation is still open ten years later; the largest private bank changes hands after, reporters found, military intelligence collected its executives; migrants pay seven times the legal fee for jobs in Malaysia; and a tax official's son posts a photograph of a goat. In August 2024 the government falls; the files open. Covers Nur Hossain and RAB-11, Atiur Rahman and Bangladesh Bank, Saiful Alam and the S Alam Group, Benazir Ahmed and the Rapid Action Battalion, PK Halder and the leasing companies, Saifuzzaman Chowdhury and his London properties, and Kazi Papul and Marafie Kuwaitia.
