Blitz Editor arrested in fraud case

Dhaka, Nov 8 (bdnews24.com)–Police have arrested English tabloid Weekly Blitz Editor Salah Uddin Shoaib Chowdhury on fraud charges.


Dhaka Metropolitan Police's Deputy Commissioner (Media Wing) Masudur Rahman told bdnews24.com Shoaib was detained from his house at Uttara in the capital on Wednesday night.

Later, a Dhaka court on Thursday sent him behind bars, pending investigation.

Rahman said the Editor was arrested in a case pressed by one Mohammad Shajahan a few days ago accusing Shoaib of embezzling Tk 6.7 million.


Shoaib had been arrested from the Shahjalal International Airport earlier in 2003 with foreign passports. Media reports had it that he was charged with spying for the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad.


The tabloid recently created a stir when it claimed in reports that Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari's son and Pakistan People's Party leader Bilawal Bhutto was having an affair with Pakistan Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar, who is married to millionaire businessman Firoze Gulzar and has two daughters.


The media in the sub-continent, especially Indian media, covered the 'news' big time even though Khar's husband Gulzar rubbished the claims as rumour.

The arrest has been made just two days before the Pakistani Foreign Minister visits Dhaka to invite Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to the D-8 summit to be held in Islamabad.

He went to Israel with special invitation but no Bangladeshi is allowed to go there as Bangladesh officially does not recognize Israel. It is well known that he promote Israel by publishing all the so called bs article.

You are right aazidane. He is a very shrewd player. He not only has links with MOSSAD but also half a dozen other intelligence agencies around the world.

He actually has a fraud case against him filed by two Jewish-American in New York city. He got their money from Dhaka, he is good in what he does. He sold them the story that he is a Muslim Zionist persecuted in Bangladesh.

Here is one article about that.




MUST HE LIE? MEET THE MUSLIM ZIONIST “HERO” WHO RIPS OFF HIS FEMALE JEWISH SUPPORTERS

By Brenda West

Call me disillusioned. No, call me furious. Nearly three years ago, when Salah UddinShoaibChoudhury was supposedly facing execution for his advocacy for Israel, I wrote an article pleading for his life to be spared. I called it Must He Die? Meet The Muslim Dissident Who Loves Jews, Christians And Free Speech. You can read it here.

Choudhury was arrested in 2003 for attempting to travel to Israel, following several months of writing articles advocating for Jews, and other minorities in his country, Bangladesh. He also criticized Bangladesh for its policy of denying normal diplomatic relations Israel. Bangladesh had and still has a policy of not permitting its citizens to travel to Israel or openly communicate with Israelis. Choudhury went to prison for seventeen months and faced possible hanging on charges of blasphemy, sedition, and insulting Islam, until an American friend intervened and drummed up support to get him released. He then received pro bono legal help from the Canadian MP, Irwin Cotler.

A cause celebre, certainly.Choudhury was seen as a man of great and noble character, an unexpected friend of the West who loved us enough to face great adversity for Western principles. He won international awards, including one from the Prince of Monaco. Holocaust survivor Elie Weisel praised him. He was an invited (and paid) lecturer at Rutgers and at the Jewish Department at Yale University. The American Jewish Committee gave him an award for moral courage. The Internet was flooded with articles admiring him for his courage and caring, especially since he published reports that he was under frequent attack in Bangladesh both from hoodlums and from the Bangladesh government that subjected him to frequent trials, any one of which – he alleged – could result in his being taken back into custody and executed. “Free Choudhury” campaigns were started, as was a move to boycott Bangladesh unless the government dropped its charges against him. Representative Mark Kirk initiated House Resolution 64 in 2007 to put pressure on Bangladesh to drop all charges against Choudhury; it passed almost unanimously. Choudhury enjoyed enormous popularity. Knowing about him, or even better, knowing him, was the in thing to do for many people.

Now I find out that he has defrauded two of his most devoted female Jewish supporters of large sums of money. Choudhurycoldly calculated how to get their money using plans that involved a complex web of lies that spanned many months. Just about every word he said to these two women was a lie, captured forever in emails and Skypes.



Choudhury has been charged by the New York Police Department with Grand Larceny via Fraud. The Bangladeshi ambassador of commerce, after viewing the broken contract, proof of money paid, and bounced checks involved in the financial transactions, described Mr. Choudhury as a “total fraudster, a complete liar and cheat” and added that he was known as that by most people in his native country.

I now regret ever advocating for him and thereby adding to the pile of false good news about him.


· He presented himself to both of these women as an extremely noble, spiritual person who loved Israel even more than they did. He cultivated a friendship with them, which they found flatteringbecause of all the honors he had received and because of all the hardships and persecution he said he was still facing. Out of their love for Israel, they wanted to help him.

Choudhury said he was dealing with an unprecedented financial squeeze,on account of all the sacrifices he was making to support Israel. However, in March, 2010, he told one of the women that he had a chance to make a greatdeal of money in a business deal that would also profit her by paying her back with a high interest rate. He told her that he would be working closely with a trusted business associate, a Mr. Yun, whose English name is David Jones, to import a food product on a wholesale basis.

· Choudhury wrote many pages of emails and Skypes describing in great detail his long standing business relationship and friendship with the very reliable Mr. Yun.He trusted Mr. Yun so much that he even had him over to his house as a frequent guest, someone who enjoyed playing chess with his young son. All he needed was a loan for which he would put up his Crown Music and Video Company as collateral in a contract that would mature in a year. He even provided – on request – a detailed contract between himself and Yun.

· When she hesitated, he told that this was the opportunity of a life time for him but that no one in Bangladesh would lend him the money he needed because of his persecuted status. Still she hesitated until he told her that he would have to sell the printing press on which he published his Bengali language version of his online newspaper, and that giving it up would be like losing a child. She shebelieved that the right thing to do was to protect what seemed to be the only source of free speech in Bangladesh so she consented to making the loan.

· In September, 2010, he borrowed another large sum from a second woman and told her he would repay her as soon as he got a wire transfer from David Jones (Mr. Yun). Months went by with almost daily emails from Choudhury promising to repay and begging Jones to pay him so he could pay her. Although Choudhurywas married, he told her was he was separated from his wife and had her write to David Jones saying she was his girlfriend, asking Jones to make the promised repayment to him.

· However, David Jones (variously described to one woman as Korean and to the other as Chinese) turns out not to exist at all. In spite of all the complicated transactions that appeared to be taking place with him, he turned out to be a total fabrication by Choudhury. The only trace of this seemingly well established businessman was a sole email address, hassociated@yahoo.com. And the only place this email showed up on a thorough Google search was on an obscure facebook page in the United Kingdom for the United States Representative, Mark Kirk, who initiated the House Resolution mentioned above.

· So when the women were writing to Jones to try to understand what was happening with their money, they were really writing to Choudhury under an email account he created for the explicit purpose of deceiving them

· There was also no business deal, no food import business, no return of the money entrusted to him.
