Bangladesh police have arrested a self-proclaimed “Sultan of S*x” accused of blackmailing dozens of women with intimate videos he filmed of their s*xual encounters, an official said Thursday.
Police raided Fuad bin Sultan’s home Wednesday in the capital Dhaka where they seized a laptop, methamphetamine tablets and alleged p*rnographic videos.
Sultan, an alleged male escort, would meet clients online and bring them back to his apartment for s*x, said a spokesman for Bangladesh’s elite police unit.
“He filmed those intimate moments and later blackmailed those victims, mostly married women, for money. We found nearly 150 individual victims’ videos in his laptop,” spokesman Ishtiaque Ahmed revealed.
Sultan, a real estate agent by trade, also conducted a “vulgar live streaming service wearing superhero masks on social media which attracted thousands of viewers”, including minors, said Ahmed.
“After we arrested him, Sultan admitted to having those extramarital relations and claimed himself as the Sultan of sexual intercourse,” Ahmed said.
“He said the ladies came to him willingly, knowing everything.”
P*rnography is illegal in Bangladesh, a conservative Muslim-majority nation of 160 million. Sultan has been charged under tough anti-p*rnography laws that could land him in prison for 10 years if he found guilty.
Bangladeshi authorities last year blocked nearly 600 p*rnographic websites in a major morality drive. More than a third of Bangladesh’s 160 million people have access to internet.
