Although a mason by profession, Mostafizur Rahman introduced himself to his girlfriend as an Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP). But while trying to maintain that identity, he ran into trouble. He was caught red-handed by the police while trying to make a fake identity card in Rangpur. Kotwali police arrested him from the city’s Press Club Shopping Mall on Tuesday (April 7) afternoon. Mostafizur is the son of Mokhlesur Rahman of Nawabganj upazila in Dinajpur.
Police and witnesses said that in the afternoon, Mostafizur went to a shop on the third floor of the Press Club Shopping Mall and introduced himself as an ASP.
