A Bangladeshi man has been arrested on money laundering charges.
The arrested man has been identified as Shahmin Islam Shagur, 32. The individual was produced before the Criminal court on Monday and remanded in custody for 15 days.
A Bangladeshi man was arrested earlier on Sunday with $80,000 he was trying to smuggle out of the Maldives on an Air Bangla flight. It is not clear whether the man remanded in custody is the same person detained at the airport.
Earlier this week, two Indians were arrested the week for possession of counterfeit dollars.
