Provenance & notes

Vote count: Wikipedia Chittagong-5 article reports 147,054 (68.78% of 213,789 total valid votes; margin 46.98pp); BSS district table reports 143,965 winner / 44,708 runner-up, likely an early unofficial tally. Wikipedia figures used as final because 147,054 / 213,789 = 68.79% is internally consistent with the reported share. Runner-up Maulana Md. Nasir Uddin Munir (Bangladesh Khelafat Majlis) received 46,589 votes (21.80%). Constituency covers Hathazari Upazila plus Chittagong Cantonment and CCC wards 1-2 (South Pahartali and Jalalabad); 'Hathazari upazila only' framing in some sources is incomplete. Helal Uddin (born 12 Aug 1982) is the son of Mir Mohammad Nasiruddin (BNP Adviser, former State Minister for Civil Aviation, former Chattogram mayor). Both father and son were convicted in a 2007 ACC graft case for illegal wealth accumulation (~Tk 28 crore); both were acquitted by the Appellate Division on 4 September 2025. criminal_cases field is empty: acquittal is final, no ongoing case. EC affidavit asset figure of Tk 31.22 crore confirmed by TBS; wealth_disclosed_bdt stored as 31220000 (BDT, not crore). Cabinet role: initially State Minister for CHT Affairs only (Feb 17 2026 gazette); Land portfolio added by March 2026; BSS May 13 2026 article confirms both portfolios. income_annual_disclosed_bdt not publicly reported. This is Helal Uddin's first general election win.
