Police arrested six people Sunday in Dhaka's Moghbazar area for defrauding three former bank employees of 14.4 million taka through fake employment schemes. The Police Bureau of Investigation seized 7 million taka in cash along with a microbus, watches and phones during the operation. Additional DIG Enayet Hossain Mannan said the group rented upscale apartments and advertised accountant positions targeting retired banking professionals.
Suspects would evaluate victims' wealth after initial contact and quickly extend job offers tied to a watch import business. The gang extracted money gradually while instructing targets to maintain secrecy from relatives. Authorities identified the detained individuals as Mahbubur Rahman, Al Amin, Rashedul Islam, Masud Khan and Bilkis before the syndicate vanished with collected funds.
