Police have become very active to arrest former Songazi OC Moazzem Hossain, who was widely criticised after the killing incident of Feni madrasa student Nusrat Jahan Rafi.

Competent sources said Feni and Rangpur police have the information that OC Moazzem, who went into hiding, is now staying in the capital. A team of Sonagazi Thana Police has come in city to nab him after getting arrest warrant against him.   

The team conducted drives in several areas in the capital on Monday but no positive response yet to get in this regard.

The former OC of Sonagazi went into hiding two weeks back after an arrest warrant was issued against him by Cyber Crime Tribunal in Dhaka. 

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal on Sunday said, “It will take some time to find him, if he went into hiding. But he must face the music.”

Mentionable that the cyber tribunal in Dhaka on May 27 issued an arrest warrant for Moazzem Hossain on charges of recording a statement of Nusrat, a victim of sexual harassment, on camera without her consent and circulating the clip on social media.

Police in Feni and Rangpur have acknowledged the receipt of the arrest warrant.
