Mehzabin Reveals the Truth Behind Fraud Allegations

Renowned contemporary actress Mehzabin Chowdhury has recently found herself at the centre of a legal controversy, following allegations of embezzlement and threats amounting to 2.7 million taka. The case was filed by an individual named Amirul Islam, who accused Mehzabin and her brother, Alisan Chowdhury, of misconduct.

Due to their failure to appear in court, arrest warrants were issued against the siblings on 10 November. However, last Sunday evening, they voluntarily surrendered at Dhaka’s Executive Magistrate Court, where they were subsequently granted bail.

On Monday morning, Mehzabin took to social media with a detailed post to clarify the circumstances surrounding the case. She revealed that she had been unaware of the lawsuit, filed in March 2025, for the past nine months because the complainant had failed to provide the police or the court with her correct phone number and address.

According to Mehzabin, the complainant claims to have conducted business with her since 2016. Yet, he has not provided a single message, WhatsApp conversation, screenshot, or any form of written communication to support his claim. Despite demanding 2.7 million taka, he has failed to present any bank transactions, cheques, mobile payments, contracts, receipts, or witnesses. Even the allegation that she allegedly took him blindfolded to a restaurant at Hatirjheel on 11 February remains unsupported, with no CCTV footage or witness testimony available.

Mehzabin emphasised that she had received no communication from the police or court regarding the case. She stated that even if she had received a formal notice earlier, she would have immediately taken legal action. Although she asserts that the case has no foundation, she surrendered and obtained bail in compliance with legal procedures once the arrest warrant came to her attention.

The actress’s detailed explanation has sparked a debate about the nature of such legal claims and the responsibilities of complainants to provide clear evidence before approaching the courts.
