Dhallywood film stars Eka and Pori Moni has officially been stripped off of their memberships at BFDC's Film Actors' Association.
The news was announced by Dhallywood actor Misa Sawdagar, president of the association, at a press conference after a meeting of the association's executive committee on Saturday (August 7) afternoon.
"It has been decided to suspend their membership," he said. "Later, a decision will be taken about them according to the association's constitution. ”
He also added, "Articles 6(b) and 9 of the constitution of the association state that if a member gets involved in any work that tarnishes the image of the association, his membership will be suspended temporarily.”
Misa also announced, "If the allegations against them are not proved, they will get their membership back."
Among others, Monwar Hossain Dipzal, Aliraj and Anjana Sultana were also present at the meeting of the executive committee of the association.
Film star Eka was recently detained for abusing her housekeeper.
A Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) team detained film star Pori Moni, whose real name is Shamsunnahar Smriti, on Wednesday (August 4) during a raid at her Banani home.
As many as 19 bottles of liquor, four grams of ice or crystal meth, and a blot of LSD were found at her flat, said RAB.
On Thursday (August 5), a Dhaka court gave investigators four days to interrogate Pori Moni in two cases started by RAB. Three of her associates were also remanded for four days.
Pori Moni had made waves on both mass media and social media back in mid-June after accusing several people, including businessmen Nasir U Mahmood and Tuhin Siddique Omi, of attempting to rape and murder her.
She had also filed a case against them with Savar police.
Nasir and Omi were arrested in the case and they managed to secure bail later.
Police later also found discrepancies in Pori Moni’s claims made regarding the charges she made against them.
