DHAKA, Jan 12, 2026 (BSS) - The Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) unit has arrested a man namely Sagar Halder on charges of misbehaving with a traffic sergeant, obstructing government duty and later spreading misinformation and issuing threats on Facebook.

The arrest was made on Monday following a raid conducted by the CTTC Cyber Crime Investigation Department's Digital Forensic Team, according to a press release.

CTTC sources said the incident took place on January 9 in the Motijheel area, where Halder was stopped during a routine traffic check.
