A Dhaka court on Thursday, June 18, 2026, ordered the imprisonment of Ahmed Zubair, former managing director of Somoy Television, in a fraud case. The order followed his failure to appear before the court in connection with a bank fraud and breach of trust case filed at Kalabagan Police Station.
On Wednesday, June 17, the court had issued arrest warrants against Zubair, his wife Shamima Sultana Chowdhury, their two children Saraf Nawar Joyita and Ahmed Rafid Kader Rivu, and two witnesses, Sheikh Mahmud Yasin and Sani Chowdhury, for not complying with a previous court summons. The summons, issued on May 10 by the Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Court, required them to appear and respond to the allegations.
Court sources said the accused were given the opportunity to submit legal explanations either in person or through lawyers. Their absence on the scheduled date led to the issuance of arrest warrants and Zubair’s subsequent imprisonment order.
