A Dhaka court has issued an arrest warrant against renowned actress and filmmaker Meher Afroz Shaon following allegations of physical abuse against her father and stepmother, Nishi Islam. The case, filed by Nishi Islam, names 12 individuals including former DB chief Mohammad Harun-or-Rashid. Two police officers from Badda Police Station admitted in court to detaining and torturing the complainant under directives from their then-officer-in-charge. Allegedly, Shaon had her mentally ill father confined to a psychiatric facility while Nishi Islam was imprisoned for six months. “We want justice,” said Nishi Islam.
