Bangladeshi actor Nusraat Faria was arrested at Dhaka airport on Sunday. She was caught while heading to Thailand. Police say she is linked to an attempted murder case from the July 2024 protests against then-PM Sheikh Hasina. Faria had played Hasina in the 2023 film Mujib: The Making of a Nation. She was taken to Vatara police station and later moved to the Detective Branch office in Dhaka. Faria, 31, began her career as a radio jockey. She acted in several Bangladeshi and Indian films. Her arrest follows protests that led to Hasina stepping down and fleeing to India. (PC: India Today)
