Dhaka Metropolitan Detective Police (DB) have arrested a man named Md. Ripon, aged 23, for allegedly creating fake Facebook accounts using the names and photos of senior government, police, and administrative officials. The arrest took place on Monday, March 30, near the Cancer Building of PG Hospital under Shahbagh Police Station. Two mobile phones were seized during the operation.
According to DB sources, a fraud ring had been using the identities of high-ranking officials to open fake Facebook accounts, post misleading content, and deceive the public. Analysis of the recovered phones revealed a logged-in fake account named “Doctor. Ayesha Khatun,” which was used to post deceptive materials featuring the Inspector General of Police and other key figures.
Preliminary interrogation indicated that Ripon had been conducting these fraudulent activities for a long time with the help of accomplices. Legal proceedings against him are currently underway.
