Dhaka, May 20, 2025: Actress Nusrat Faria was released on bail from Kashimpur Prison on Tuesday (May 20) at around 3:20 PM, two days after her arrest in connection with an attempted murder case filed at Dhaka’s Bhatara Police Station.
According to sources, the bail documents were sent to Kashimpur Prison via email from the court around 11 AM on Tuesday. Nusrat Faria’s cousin, Lamia, spoke to the media around 3 PM, confirming that Nusrat would be released shortly. At approximately 3:20 PM, two private cars and a black micro-jeep left the prison’s main gate. It could not be confirmed which vehicle Nusrat was in, as she left with family and relatives without meeting anyone else. Many fans had gathered with flowers since morning to welcome her, but she did not interact with them after her release.
State prosecutor Omar Faruk stated that Nusrat Faria was granted bail pending the submission of the police report. According to the investigating officer’s report, Nusrat was in Canada during the time of the alleged incident (July 9–14, 2024), and no specific evidence of her involvement has been found so far.
The report further noted that after her arrest, Nusrat was initially questioned at the Dhaka Metropolitan Detective Branch (DB) office. A review of her passport confirmed that she was abroad during the incident. The investigation into the case is still ongoing.
Earlier, on Sunday (May 18), Nusrat was detained by immigration police at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport while attempting to travel to Thailand. She was handed over to Bhatara Police Station and later taken to the DB office on Minto Road for questioning. On Monday (May 19), a court ordered her imprisonment. The full bail hearing is scheduled for Thursday (May 22).
Notably, Nusrat was arrested in connection with an attempted murder case filed at Bhatara Police Station in July–August 2024.
