A Dhaka court has rejected a bail appeal filed by lawyers for actress Pori Moni as the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) sent her to court after the second spell of questioning in a drug-related case.
The court on Friday ordered to send Pori Moni to jail as there were no new cases or remand appeals filed against her, reports bdnews24.com.
She did not stand in the dock during court proceedings, Police Sub-Inspector Md Alamgir said earlier.
Pori Moni recently grabbed the headlines after accusing a businessman of trying to rape and murder her at a boating club. Police subsequently arrested Nasir Uddin Mahmood, a Dhaka Boat Club member, in a case filed by the actress. He was later released on bail.
Pori Moni came into the RAB's crosshairs following the arrest of Sharful Hasan alias Mishu Hasan and his accomplice Md Masudul Islam alias Jishan in Bashundhara on Aug 3 on charges of carrying out illicit activities in the name of DJ parties.
Based on the information gleaned from Mishu and Jishan, the elite police unit launched a raid on Pori Moni's Banani residence the following day and detained her allegedly with bottles of liquor, Yaba pills and LSD blots.
