Madrasa students catch 3 mobile libraries
Madrasa students with the help of locals caught three persons of a mobile library in the city's Bakshi Bazar area Monday night and handed over them to police suspecting their involvement in militancy.
Police said students of Government Madrasa-e-Alia and local people intercepted a bus used as the mobile library of Bangladesh Sangskritik Kendra and caught librarian Nazrul Islam, bus driver Masum and helper Shahidullah around 8:00pm.
The three persons were interrogated to find out whether they have any connection with militancy or not, police said.
Lalbagh police showed librarian Nazrul arrested under section 54 and produced him before a Dhaka court yesterday with a prayer for a three-day remand but the court sent him to jail denying the remand prayer.
The driver and helper of the mobile library were set free from the police station yesterday while police took the librarian along with the mobile library into their custody.
Lalbagh police said they seized around 2,500 books and 90 percent of the books are written on Islamic issues.
