Parliament Watch
BNP · Bogura-5
Golam Mohammad Siraj is a sitting Member of Parliament for the Bogura-5 constituency, currently facing public scrutiny regarding his financial background and outstanding loan obligations.
Vote counts (248,841 Siraj; 143,329 runner-up) confirmed by BSS. Total valid votes not published in available sources; vote_share_percent and margin_percent left null to avoid imputation -- do not derive from only two candidates as others likely contested. Wealth of Tk 2.04 billion is combined family assets (Siraj, wife Shahnaz Siraj, son Asif Rabbani) per EC affidavit as reported by Prothom Alo; income figure not in affidavit data. Criminal_cases entries are sourced exclusively from EC affidavit context (loan defaults) and Dhaka Tribune archive (ICT complaint) per rules -- the ICT complaint (Dec 2020) has not resulted in a formal charge as of verification date and the current BNP government is unlikely to pursue it. Party_role null: no current senior party position confirmed in public sources; he was a rank-and-file candidate. committee_memberships null: 13th parliament committees not yet publicly assigned as of verification date. Boundary not redrawn in 2024 EC delimitation: Bogura constituency boundaries were not among the 39 adjusted in the EC's 2025 delimitation exercise. Age 76 computed from DOB 15 January 1950. Prior terms: served Bogra-5 in 1991, 1996, 2001 (3 terms) and Bogra-6 in a 2019 by-election (resigned Dec 2022); total 4 prior + 2026 = 5 lifetime terms.
