DHAKA, Nov 12, 2025 (BSS) – A Dhaka court today convicted and sentenced shady e-commerce platform Evaly Managing Director Mohammad Rassel and Chairperson Shamima Nasrin to five years in jail each in another case filed over fraud.
 
The court also fined them Tk 10,000 each, in default of which they will have to suffer three more months in jail.
 
Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Zakir Hossain pronounced the verdict in the absence of the accused and issued arrest warrants along with conviction warrants against them.
 
According to the case documents, the accused lured customers with flashy advertisements and lucrative offers on various products through Evaly’s official Facebook page.
 
Relying on such offers, complainant Sadiqur Raihan ordered three motorcycles on March 20, 2021. The company failed to deliver the motorcycles within the stipulated time and later handed over two cheques of City Bank to the complainant. When Sadiqur attempted to encash the cheques on April 12, 2022, both were dishonoured.
 
Following the incident, he filed a case against Mohammad Rassel and Shamima Nasrin with the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate’s Court, Dhaka, on November 26, 2023.
 
Earlier, on September 18, 2025, another court sentenced the couple to three years of rigorous imprisonment in a similar case.
