On June 16, 2016, ACC served Rafiqul Amin a notice asking him to submit his wealth statement report to the commission after the anti-graft watchdog found information of his illegal wealth worth Tk13.11 crore during primary investigation, according to case details.

However, the Destiny officials failed to submit the report to ACC. Later, the commission filed a case against him with Ramna police station on September 8, 2016.

After investigation, ACC Assistant Director Md Salauddin submitted a charge sheet against Rafiqul Amin on June 6, 2017.

 A total of five prosecution witnesses testified before the court on different dates including the plaintiff of the case since the trial began on March 12, 2018.
