‘More details in this regard will be informed in a press brief scheduled to be held at the Media Center of CID Headquarters in the capital today,’ he added.

The couple recently drew public attention following a report published by an online news portal.

The report described how they had entered the global adult film industry and allegedly produced and promoted pornography contents.

They were allegedly involved in recruitment of new pornography content creators also.

Producing, selling and distributing pornography is a criminal and punishable offence in Bangladesh under the Pornography Control Act, 2012.
