Cop sent to jail on fraud allegation

An assistant sub-inspector of Bogra Sadar Police Station was sent to jail few hours after his arrest in connection with a fraud case on Thursday.

Police arrested ASI Mizanur Rahman after duty officer Sub-Inspector Roksana of the police station filed the case, reports our staff correspondent in Bogra. Later, he was sent to jail.

Sources said one Akbar Ali, 55, along with Tk 42,000 went to the police station Tuesday night and sought security from duty officer Mizanur. Akbar Ali gave the money to Mizanur to keep it in a safe place.

As Akbar on Wednesday morning sought back the money from Mizanur, the police inspector refused to return the money. He also detained Akbar showing him as a mugger.

Being frustrated, Akbar tried to kill himself by cutting his throat with a knife in the detention.

As the situation worsened, a one-member committee was formed, headed by Additional Superintendent of Police Mostafizur Rahman, to investigate the matter.

Following the investigation, the case was filed against Mizanur Rahman.
