3 brothers sentenced to jail over attempt to kill 2 journos
A Dhaka court yesterday sentenced three brothers to four months' imprisonment in a case filed over an attempt to murder two journalists of Jamuna Television in November 2016.
The convicts are Abdur Rahim, Abdul Jabbar and Md Zakir Hossain. They all are polythene traders by profession.
Soon after the verdict, the complainant expressed dissatisfaction and said they would challenge it with the higher court.
Dhaka Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Md Rezaul Karim Chowdhury handed down the sentence in presence of the convicts.
After the judgment, the three convicts got bail on the grounds that they would file an appeal with the higher court.
The court also acquitted Md Ovi, Md Habibur Rahman and Shaon Howlader as the charges brought against them were not proved.
