A Dubai-based expatriate, Arif Hossain Miazi, was allegedly assaulted in Banani for refusing to pay Tk 2 crore in extortion money. He filed a case at Banani police station against two arrested suspects—Nazim Uddin (54) and Ibrahim Hossain Roni (39)—along with 8-10 unidentified accomplices. The attack occurred at around 1:10 AM near Plan B in Banani when the suspects blocked his path and forcibly took Tk 30,500 from him while demanding the larger sum. Upon hearing his cries for help, locals and a police patrol team intervened and rescued him. Authorities have since arrested two suspects and launched an investigation.
