Today’s actress Mahia Mahi announced a few months ago that she is going to be a mother. The nine-month pregnant actress was arrested by the police from Dhaka Shahjalal International Airport on Saturday (March 18) around 10:30 am.
Actress Mahia Mahi has been sent to jail by the court in a Digital Security Act case filed at Gazipur Basan police station. Respecting the law, many in the showbiz arena have appealed to ensure that no harm is done to the expectant mother and her child.
Actress and producer Meher Afroz Shaon is in this list. He wrote on his Facebook, “I know Mahiya Mahi personally. While working on my first film ‘Krishna Paksha’, we stayed together day and night for about 1 month. If we are together for a long time at the shooting spot, we know about 90% of people’s faults. I am saying from that knowledge – Mahi is a lucky girl, a good person. I have never seen him gossiping or badmouthing colleagues. On the contrary, I have seen talking to all categories of shooting spot crews with due respect. Today I heard that Mahi has been arrested under the Digital Security Act. The picture of his arrest from the airport is circulating on social media! And the taste level of the commenters below that picture cannot be overstated! (Although there are no safety laws for lewd comments, false slander or defamation threats on celebrity photos!)
If Mahia Mahi has committed any wrongdoing in the eyes of the law, she must be investigated. However, sending an eight-month pregnant mother to jail or remanding her is in no way desirable. Requesting law enforcement and law enforcement officials to exercise judicious and sensitive treatment of pregnant Mahi and her unborn child.”
Meanwhile, Jaya Ahsan, a popular actress of Bengal, wrote on her Facebook, ‘Actress Mahia Mahi has been arrested under the Digital Security Act. Just read the news, the police applied to remand him, but the court did not grant it. Mahi is a popular actress, but like every citizen of the country, she too is subject to the law. But it is important to remember that she is now nine months pregnant. Let his complaint be investigated, but no harm should be done to an expectant mother and her child. I thank the learned Court for not granting the remand. I would also request the police officers to be sensitive to ensure that the mother and the unborn child are not harmed.’
On the other hand, actress Tama Mirza wrote, ‘Mahiya Mahi has committed such a big crime that a woman who is nine months pregnant was arrested from the airport with such arrangements? In fact, many big accused have been caught … and why am I talking about them again, it will be seen that I am also guilty of talking….’
Filmmaker Maria Tushar wrote on Facebook, ‘Actress Mahia Mahi has been arrested under the Digital Security Act. The police applied to remand him but the court did not grant it. Mahi is a popular actress but like every citizen of the country she is also subject to the law. But it is important to remember that she is now nine months pregnant. Let his complaint be investigated, but no harm should be done to an expectant mother and her child. I thank the learned Court for not granting the remand. I would also request the police officers, please be sensitive so that the mother and her unborn child are not harmed.’
Newcomer Raj Ripa wrote, ‘The baby in her womb should see this beautiful world. Mahiya Mahi is a 9-month pregnant woman asking ‘Mother of Bengal’, please release her.’
Mentioning Mahi’s pregnancy, Nayak Riaz said, ‘Heroine Mahi is currently pregnant. Let the police keep in mind the issue of his physical complications.’ Heroine Nipun matched the same tone. He said, ‘As an artiste, as a citizen of the country, I want Mahi to get justice. She is pregnant, legal action should be taken against her accordingly.’
In September 2021, Mahia Mahi married businessman and politician Rakib Sarkar of Gazipur. After that, he gradually moved away from movies. A few days ago, he actively entered the field of politics. He even ran to become the Awami League candidate in the MP elections. But in the end he did not get the nomination.
Recently she went to Saudi Arabia with her husband to perform Umrah. From there, they came on Facebook live early on Friday (March 17) and complained that their car showroom in Gazipur was attacked and vandalized. They also accused the local police of taking ‘bribe’ in that incident. The Gazipur Metropolitan Police filed a case against Mahi-Rakib that night. According to that source, Mahi was arrested as soon as he returned to the country.
