Cricketer Tania’s husband held for stealing Shorna’s iPhones

The Rapid Action Battalion has arrested the husband of a national team colleague over the theft of two iPhones and dollars, worth a combined Tk 550,000, from Bangladeshi cricketer Shorna Akter.

The arrestee, Al Amin Dewan Azan, is the husband of Nuzhat Tania. Both Tania and Shorna live in an apartment at West Raza Bazar in Dhaka. On Monday, Shorna filed a case with the Sher-e-Bangla Nagar Police Station naming Azan as a suspect.

RAB arrested Al Amin Dewan Azan on the case from Dinajpur on Tuesday, said Commander Arafat Islam, chief of RAB-13, reports bdnews24.com.

“Shorna’s stolen mobile phone was recovered from Azan, but we are working to retrieve the other stolen objects,” he said.

Shorna and Tania lived in the apartment in West Raza Bazar together alongside two other people, according to the case dossier. Tania got married to Azan 12 days ago.

On Monday, Azan went to their Raza Bazar house after Shorna and Tania left for their practice session at the Tejkuni Para Khelaghar ground, leaving Azan at the apartment.
