GD filed against fake reporter
The Daily Star’s Noakhali correspondent Nurul Amin, on behalf of the newspaper, yesterday filed a general diary (GD) with Lakshmipur Sadar Police Station against one Md Azizur Rahman alias Azam for falsely claiming himself to be Lakkhipur correspondent of the paper.
Azizur, a member of Lakshmipur Press Club, has been cheating people and thus tarnishing the image of The Daily Star by introducing himself as its Lakshmipur correspondent with a fake press identity card and business cards of The Daily Star.
The Daily Star never appointed Azizur as its Lakshmipur correspondent and Nurul Amin has been the authorised correspondent to cover news in the district for the paper for over a decade, according to the GD.
The president and secretary of Lakshmipur Press Club have been informed of the matter verbally.
All concerned are requested to be aware of Md Azizur Rahman alias Azam’s false identity and refrain from communicating with him regarding any matter relating to The Daily Star.
