Police in Chatkhil, Noakhali, arrested expatriate Sohel Rana, 36, from Kartakhil village on Sunday night following a warrant issued by the Comilla Judicial Court. Rana, son of the late Shafiullah, allegedly deceived several women by posing as an unmarried man while living abroad and marrying them under false pretenses. His latest wife, Shahanaz Begum, 30, from Kutuali in Comilla, filed a case on June 2, leading to his arrest. He was presented before the court on Monday afternoon.
According to police and Shahanaz’s complaint, Rana developed a relationship with her over four years, married her on May 5, and later took her to his family home in Chatkhil, where she discovered his previous wife and children. Despite agreeing to continue the marriage, Shahanaz was allegedly assaulted and forced out by Rana’s relatives and a local member named Masud. She later filed complaints in both Chatkhil and Comilla.
Police stated that Masud’s name was excluded from the charge sheet due to lack of evidence. Local sources claimed Rana had similarly deceived and abused other women in the past.
