Live Correspondent: A special tribunal today issued arrest warrant against former Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Sonagazi Police Station Moazzem Hossain in a case lodged for recording Nusrat Jahan Rafi’s statement on video and spreading it online.

The tribunal passed the order a day after Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) submitted its probe report over the incident. Judge Mohammad As-Shams Jaglul Hossain of Bangladesh Cyber Tribunal passed the order accepting the charges brought against the disgraced police officer.

Investigation officer and PBI senior ASP Rima Sultana filed the report at Bangladesh Cyber Tribunal yesterday, stating that they have found the allegations brought against the police official true. Supreme Court lawyer Barrister Syed Sayedul Haque Suman filed the case on April 15 with Bangladesh Cyber Tribunal this afternoon under section 26, 29 and 31 of Digital Security Act (DSA).

The police official in his room started quizzing her about the incident and was recording the whole incident in absence of any lawyer or female cop. He was seen scolding her and asking Nusrat indecent questions. Moazzem later posted the video on different social media sites.
