Khasru gets bail in 4 cases

BNP Standing Committee Member Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury has secured bail in four separate cases filed with Ramna and Paltan model police stations.

Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Tofazzal Hossain's court granted him bail against a Tk10,000 bond until the police file their reports in the cases, after a hearing on Thursday.

“Amir Khasru got bail in four out of eight cases with two separate police stations. However, hearings were not held in four other cases due to lack of documents. Hopefully, the bail hearings in those cases will be held when the case documents arrive in the relevant court,” said Syed Jainul Abedin Mesbah, a lawyer for the accused.

Detectives detained the senior BNP leader at his home in Gulshan on November 2. 

The next day, a Dhaka court granted the police six days to question him in custody.

He was sent to jail after the remand period on November 9 and has been there since then.
