S M Mostafa Rashidi Suja (2 March 1953 – 26 July 2018)[2][3] was a Bangladeshi politician. He was elected to the Jatiya Sangsad as a member of the Bangladesh Awami League from Khulna-4 constituency three times in 1991, 1996 and 2014.[4]

Career[edit | edit source]

Suja started his political career around 1968-69 as an activist of Chhatra Union, the then students’ wing of National Awami Party led by Abdul Hamid Khan Bhashani.[4][2] He got involved with the Jubo League in 1972 and was elected the commissioner of Liakat Nagar Union under the Khulna municipality in 1979.[2]

Suja served as the Jatiya Sangsad Whip during 1991–1996.[2][5]

In February 2007, the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) published a list of 50 persons of top corrupt suspects which included Suja's name.[6][7] The 50 were asked to submit their wealth statements at the ACC office within 72 hours of receiving the notification.[6] In July 2007, Suja, along with his wife Khodeja Rashidi and their two daughters Sanzida Rashidi Shimmi and Taniza Rashidi Turki were sued by the ACC for not submitting wealth statements.[8] In March 2008, a Dhaka court sentenced Suja to 13 years and Khodeja to 3 years in jail on charges of amassing wealth illegally and providing false information.[9] The couple was sent to jail after they surrendered to the trial court in June 2008.[10] In July 2009, they were granted bail by the High Court.[10]

Suja did not get the Awami League nomination for the 2008 general election because of the conviction.[11]

Personal life[edit | edit source]

Suja had a son, S M Khaledin Rashidi Sukarno.[12]

Suja died at the age of 68 on 27 July 2018, at Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore, where he had sought treatment of kidney problems.[13]
