A 25-year old female police constable filed a case against her former colleague on charge of raping her forcibly to show luring of marriage at Mouchack Hotel in the city’s Malibag area about one and half months ago.
The victim filed a case in this connection with Shahjahanpur Police Station under Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) on Saturday night, said Rafiqul Islam, a Sub-Inspector of Shahjahanpur Police Station.
The accused has been identified as Ariful Islam, a constable of Public Order Management (POM) of Mirpur Police Barrack under DMP, the police official said.
The victim was admitted at Ono-Stop Crisis Center of Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH).
Shahjahanpur Police arrested Ariful Islam from Rajarbagh Police Line soon after filing of the case, he said.
“We have learned, there was a romantic relationship between them, but Ariful went to his hometown a few days ago and married another woman,” he added.
According to the First Information Report (FIR), Ariful took the female colleague to a hotel in the city’s Malibag area more than a month ago promising to marry her and then raped her, according to case documents.
