Speaking at a press briefing on Saturday (October 10, 2026), CID Special Superintendent of Police (Media) Md. Chufi Ullah revealed that the arrest was executed in Uttara Sector 18 late Thursday night (October 8). According to the case statement, the victim was targeted via Telegram in August 2025 with an offer to earn daily income by rating travel destinations on a cloned website mimicking a Dutch firm. After building trust through initial small payouts, the fraudsters lured the businessman into investing BDT 24.19 lakh under the guise of an anniversary scheme, showing fake bank transfer receipts in a group chat. The victim filed a case with Paltan Police Station in November 2025 after the ring cut contact upon demanding further payments. CID investigations traced mobile financial service transactions back to Priyonti, marking her as the seventh arrest in connection with the scam, where four co-accused have already delivered court confessions.
