Actor Rajib's wife, son feared abducted


The wife and son of actor Wasimul Bari Rajib went missing yesterday afternoon.

Police and the family of Rajib, also managing director of the Film Development Corporation, feared they might have been kidnapped.

Teams of Detective Branch, Rapid Action Team and police launched an extensive search for the two -- Ismat Ara Baby and Dip -- who went to seek visa from the Indian High Commission (HC) in Gulshan.

Ismat told one of her friends soon after leaving the HC at 1:30pm by cellphone that they were heading for Tejgaon by taxicab.

Her phone was switched off soon after.

When they did not return home and her phone was on again at 10:30pm but nobody was answering, an anxious Rajib reported it to the Airport Police Station.

They did not get back home until 12:30am today.
