Tito Rahman alias Mustafizur Rahman Tito alias Tito lives in Canada as a refugee and works in a factory as laborer. He resides in an apartment allocated by the Canadian government for the workers of various industrial projects. To hide his real identity of being an active member of Jamaatul Mujahedin Bangladesh, which is now named as Ansar Al Islam, Tito Rahman has taken the disguise of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the illegal Nagorik TV. For the past several years, a jihadist Tito Rahman has been running pro-militancy and anti-Bangladesh propaganda through YouTube and Facebook and has been promoting anti-Bangladesh and pro-militancy individuals as well as convicted criminals, including criminals wanted by INTERPOL.

Meanwhile, BLiTZ has already drawn attention of the US and Canadian authorities for using the US and Canadian soils in running serious types of criminal activities and extortion. As per existing law of the United States and Canada, anyone using the soils of these countries in running criminal activities, including cybercrime and extortion would be tantamount to stern legal proceedings including deportation. But defying these laws, sitting in the United States and Canada, a band of criminals led by Nazmus Saquib and Tito Rahman alias Mustafizur Rahman Tito alias Tito are continuing blackmailing and extortion through a YouTube-based illegal entity named ‘Nagorik TV’. Correspondents of BLiTZ already are contacting relevant authorities in the US and Canada drawing their attention to criminal activities of this dangerous crime racket.

According to media reports, Nazmus Saquib sought asylum in the United States proclaiming himself as a gay. But later it was revealed that he has two wives – one in Bangladesh and another in Canada, while he has been forcing girls and women towards sexual relations, making porn videos and selling those to a number of porn sites. In Bangladesh, he was associated as a part-time stringer with now-defunct English-language daily newspaper The Independent. He resides in Palm Beach area in Florida. Saquib got addicted to drugs during her student life at Ideal School and later Notre Dame College in Dhaka. He also was an active member of the student front of pro-jihadist Jamaat-e-Islami.

One of Nazmus Saquib’s wives who lives in Bangladesh claims, her husband is a drug addict and pervert, who was accused of having illicit sexual relations with a large number of girls and women since his student life. She said, Saquib also is a diehard member of the student front of Jamaat-e-Islami and after seeking asylum in the US with false declaration, Saquib has been running anti-Bangladesh vile propaganda as well as blackmailing and extortion through ‘Nagorik TV’.
