Probe report on DIG Mizan submitted
An investigation committee of police has submitted a probe report on Deputy Inspector General Mizanur Rahman, who allegedly married a woman forcefully and tortured her.
The report was submitted to the Discipline and Professional Standard wing of Police Headquarter (PHQ) on Monday, Moinur Rahman Chowdhury, additional inspector general of PHQ, told The Daily Star yesterday.
Moniur, also the chief of the three-member investigation committee, submitted the report but refused to disclose anything.
DIG Mizan, now attached to the PHQ, was an additional commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) before being withdrawn on January 9.
DIG Mizan allegedly issued threats to Nesarul Haque Khokon, senior reporter of Bangla Daily Jugantor; and Abdullah Tuhin, special correspondent of Jamuna Television, while he was talking to a TV presenter over the phone.
The threats came after the journalists ran reports of alleged forced marriage and torture on a woman.
Mizan allegedly picked up 25-year-old Moriam Akter Eko in front of her Panthapath house on July 15 last year and then forcibly married her, according to a statement of Moriam’s mother Queen Talukdar.
In the statement, sent to different media outlets, Queen Talukdar also alleged that her daughter was implicated in a false case and was jailed for three weeks.
