MP Amanur shifted to Kashimpur jail
Ruling Awami League lawmaker Amanur Rahman Rana, accused in freedom fighter Faruk Ahmed murder case, was shifted to Kashimpur Central Jail-1 in Gazipur from Tangail District Jail yesterday.
He was shifted to the jail around 3:00pm with special security arrangement in direction of the higher authorities, Ritesh Chakma, jailor of Tangail District Jail.
On Sunday, a Tangail court sent Amanur, lawmaker of Tangail-3 (Ghatail) constituency, to jail after rejecting his bail petition in the murder case.
Having remained fugitive for about 22 months, the lawmaker surrendered before the court in the morning and pleaded for bail.
Freedom fighter Faruk, also former Tangail AL publicity secretary, was shot dead in Tangail town on January 18, 2013.
