Bangladesh’s Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has arrested two members of a gang accused of impersonating law enforcement officers to carry out abductions and extortion in Dhaka. The suspects, Hasanuzzaman (35) and Alamgir Shikari (46), were detained near the High Court area on Saturday evening. According to CID, the gang targeted victims through religious gatherings such as Tabligh Jamaat, gaining trust before luring them into financial traps. One victim, identified as Jamal (pseudonym), was abducted on October 14 along with a colleague after being confronted by men posing as CID officers. They were taken to a house in Hasnabad, where the gang demanded Tk 5 crore and coerced Jamal into paying Tk 1.1 crore in cash and bank transfers. The abductors also filmed compromising footage to blackmail the victims further. Following a police complaint filed on November 6, CID launched an investigation and arrested the two suspects, who have confessed to their involvement. Efforts to apprehend other gang members are ongoing.
