Banks have also been asked to freeze the accounts of Aparajita Haque, wife of Babu, and Shababa Ishayat Haque, their daughter.
The anti-money laundering agency issued the directive today to suspend transactions in their personal and business accounts for 30 days.
The unit also asked banks to submit all transaction records of them within two working days.
Mozammel Babu was the president of the Editors Guild, Bangladesh.
He was detained while trying to enter India through Dhobaura border in Mymensingh last month.
