Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) troubleshooters nabbed Chhobi Noor alias Pushpita, fugitive model Nikita's younger sister, from her husband's Gulshan residence on Wednesday midnight suspecting her link with the underworld of dangerous drug yaba, reports UNB.

Her businessman-husband MNH Bulu was also picked up in the raid conducted by a team of RAB-3 on a tip-off, sources said Thursday.
The elite force is hunting down the suspects in the biggest-ever break of drug case in Dhaka's underworld following confessional statement by Amin Huda, the arrested drug lord. Following the tip, they raided the residence of Mahbubur Rahman Zoynal, managing director of hotel Purbani International, on Monday night to arrest Ferdous Niki alias Nikita, allegedly the main dealer of the newfound drug, yaba.
Mahbub and Nikita both sneaked out the house after the arrival of the crime-busters. But they discovered a treasure of precious jewels, foreign currencies and so.
Quoting Amin Huda, a RAB official said Nikita and Pushpita are Huda's trump cards for running the roaring trade in the sex-stimulating tablets.
About the exact figure of the recovered valuables, he said, "We asked three experts of Amin Jewelers, country's only diamond-selling jewelry house, to measure the figure. But they couldn't yet. Some of the recovered diamonds the experts couldn't see in their life."
He also said they had already interrogated Pushpita and her husband. "We'll continue our drive to hold Mahbubur Rahman, who is one of the main Yaba dealers in the country. And hopefully we would manage to arrest him at the soonest possible time."
