The Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) Tuesday arrested nine people of a fake marriage media, including its managing director (MD), for their alleged involvement in fraudulent act.

RAB sources said they arrested nine people of DeshBangla marriage media - its female MD, Monalisa, 25, and eight employees - from a restaurant at Dhanmondi at about 3:30pm on charges of cheating people in the name of matchmaking.

They said the marriage agency used to take Tk 4,000 from each client introducing Monalisa as Canadian citizen and offering her hand in marriage.

Being informed by a client, RAB men in plain cloths accosted the nine members of DeshBangla marriage agency at Yummy Yummy restaurant at Dhanmondi where a deal was under way.

As they failed to show any legal documents, the elite forces took Monalisa and her eight accomplices into custody for interrogation.
