Christina Gemma is an international photographer.  Recently, her photography exhibition took place at Alliance Française, Chattogram.

Witnesses said that the muggers who came on a CNG auto-rickshaw slowed down near Christina Gemma and snatched her shoulder bag in a few seconds and ran away very quickly.

Christina Gemma said that she and her two friends were going to Jamal Khan from Shilpakala Academy.  On the way, she withdrew Tk30,000 from an ATM booth.  The bag contained that money, her mobile phone and camera.
