Farhad Mazhar abduction

Wife rejects DB probe report

Wife of poet and columnist Farhad Mazhar on Thursday rejected the investigation report of Detective Branch (DB) that found no proof of Mazhar's abduction and sought time to file a no confidence petition in this regard, reports UNB.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Khurshid Alam adjourned yesterday’s hearing until January 9 and asked Mazhar's wife Farida Akhter to move the petition on that date.

Earlier on November 14, DB inspector Mahbubul Islam, also investigation officer of a case, submitted the final report to judge of Dhaka Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court mentioning that they did not find any proof of abduction. The final report also urged the court for taking action under Section 109 and 211 of penal code against Farhad Mazhar and his wife Farida Akhter for filing false case of abduction.

The court then fixed December 7 for next hearing.

On July 3, family members claimed that Farhad Mazhar had been kidnapped by unknown miscreants from Adabar in the capital in the early hours of the day.

Later, police found him in a ‘Hanif Paribahan’ bus around 11:30 pm on the same day while he was returning to Dhaka from Khulna.
