DIBRUGARH: Dibrugarh Police on Saturday arrested Baidullah Khan's sister for allegedly extorting money from a woman in Dibrugarh. Baidullah Khan's sister identified as Saira Begum was arrested in connection to a case wherein she allegedly extorted money from a woman. A woman identified as Meenu Begum had borrowed money from Baidullah's father Abdula Khan. However, when she could not pay back the amount, Saira allegedly threatened Meenu and her family with dire consequences. With no options at her disposal, Meenu Begum sold one of her kidneys to clear the debt.

As stated by Meenu, her family had approached the Dibrugarh police for help in 2020. But, no action was taken by the authorities back then. However, Dibrugarh Superintendent of Police Shwetank Mishra denied receiving any such FIR.
