Actress Shimla grilled over Biman hijack attempt
CHATTOGRAM, Sept 12, 2019 (BSS) – Counter-Terrorism Unit (CTU) of
Chattogram Metropolitan Police today quizzed actress Shimla in connection
with the hijack attempt of an aircraft of Bangladesh Biman.
Rejash Barua, inspector of CTU, told BSS that actress Shimla, who
reportedly had love affair with the alleged hijacker Polash Ahmed, was
quizzed for four hours from 10 am today.
But the inspector could not divulge with the details of the interrogation
for the sake of interests of the investigation.
Civil Aviation and Tourism Ministry on February 25 formed the probe
committee to investigate the plane hijacking attempt that took place at
Chattogram airport.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft of Biman Bangladesh Airlines made an emergency
landing at Chattogram’s Shah Amanat International Airport on the evening of
February 24 after Polash Ahmed, a passenger of the flight, allegedly
attempted to hijack the plane.
Polash was killed later in an eight-minute operation by members of the
army’s Para-commando unit.
