He destroyed his modelling portfolio and all photos after quitting that profession and becoming religious,” the former ramp model’s elder brother, Waliur Alam, told the Dhaka Tribune. Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) arrested Mehedi from a house in Dhaka’s South Banasree in the early hours of Thursday over his alleged connection to New JMB. On Thursday, a Dhaka court remanded Mehedi into RAB custody for four days for interrogation. Meanwhile, Waliur told the Dhaka Tribune that Mehedi had left their Mohakhali home on the evening of May 4 and had been traceless since. When asked about Mehedi’s alleged militant activities, Waliur claimed that they did not know anything about that.
