Money Laundering: Suspended jailer Sohel Rana granted bail

The High Court yesterday granted bail to Sohel Rana Biswas, suspended jailer of Chattogram Central Jail, in a money laundering case. 

The bail was granted until Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) submits charge sheet to the trial court, on condition that he must surrender his passport to the lower court.

The bench of Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder passed the order, after virtually hearing a petition filed by Sohel, seeking bail.

Law enforcers arrested Sohel from Kishoreganj on October 27, 2018, with over Tk 44 lakh, fixed deposit receipts worth Tk 2.5 crore and Phensedyl.
