Mithila, Sabnam Faria get anticipatory bail

Celebrity actresses Rafiath Rashid Mithila and Sabnam Faria have secured anticipatory bail for eight weeks in a fraud case filed by a customer of e-commerce platform Evaly. 

The High Court bench of Justice Zahangir Hossain Selim and Justice Md Atoar Rahman on Monday passed the order after a hearing, the actresses' lawyer Jesmin Sultana told Jago News.

Earlier on December 4, Saad Nam, a customer of Evaly, filed the case against nine people with Dhanmondi Police Station.

Rest seven accused are celebrity actor Tahsan Khan; Evaly's managing director and chief executive officer Mohammad Rassel, his wife and e-commerce company's chairman Nasrin; Akash, Arif, Taher, and Md Abu Taish Kayes.

The case statement said Tahsan, Mithila, and Sabnam Faria were in different positions of Evaly. Because of their presence and their various promotional talks, the plaintiff invested around Tk 3.18 lakh in the company but he was deceived. 

Tahsan Khan was Evaly's Goodwill ambassador, Mithila lifestyle Goodwill ambassador and Sabnam Faria chief public relations officer.
