Two models arrested in Dhaka

The police arrested two ‘models’ raiding their houses in Dhaka on early Monday and Sunday night for their alleged involvement with a blackmailing gang.

A team of the Detective Branch of Police, led by joint commissioner Harun Or Rashid, on early Monday arrested a suspect over the suicide of college student Mosarat Jahan Munia.

The DB team arrested former TV presenter, model and entrepreneur, Faria Mahabub Piasha, raiding her Baridhara house. The DB claimed that they seized foreign liquor, shisha and pills from the house.

‘We have arrested her,’ said DB’s joint commissioner (north) Harun Or Rashid.

Asked about her link to Mosarat Jahan Munia’s death, he said that they would interrogate her about that.

Nusrat Jahan, sister of the Mosarat, filed a case against Bashundhara managing director Sayem after police recovered her body from a flat in Gulshan on April 26.

In her complaint, Nursat also mentioned the name of Faria Mahabub for taking Mosarat to Sayem’s mother to end her relationship with Sayem.

Earlier, Faria said that she used to know Mosarat, but she was not aware of the fact that she was in Dhaka.

‘We have been requesting the police to interrogate Faria regarding Munia’s connection to Sayem but nothing has been done yet,’ Mosarat’s brother-in-law Mizanur Rahman told New Age on Monday morning.

The DB team made the move after Gulshan police station officer-in-charge inspector Abul Hasan submitted a final report to the court of chief metropolitan magistrate in Dhaka on July 19 dropping the name of Sayem Sobhan Anvir in the case.

Faria is the former wife of Apan Jewellers owner’s son Shafat Ahmed who was accused of raping a private university student at Raintree hotel in Dhaka in 2017.

Meanwhile, another ‘model’, Mou Akter, was detained from her Mohammadpur house during another drive on Sunday night, Harun said.

He claimed that the two models were members of a blackmailing ring and they used to take obscene photos of young people to blackmail them.

Cases under Narcotics Control Act would be filed against the duo, Harun said, adding that they would also investigate the allegations of blackmailing.

However, Mou told journalists, present at the scene. that there was no liquor at her house.
