‘Withdraw DSA case against Titu’
Journalists in Patuakhali formed a human chain yesterday protesting the case filed under the Digital Security Act against Ekattor TV and Rising BD.com's Barguna correspondent Imran Hossain Titu.
The event was organised in front of Patuakhali Press Club.
The case was filed on March 1 against Titu after he reported on a local mazaar's fund collection process.
One Badal, who is in charge of the collection, filed the case, saying it was published without his permission.
At yesterday's event, speakers said they will organise stringent protests if the case against Titu is not withdrawn.
They also demanded the abolishment of DSA.
Contacted, OC Anwar Hossain Talukdar of Mirzaganj Police Station said an investigation is currently ongoing in this regard. "The case has been sent to Dhaka for experts' opinion," he added.
Badal could not be contacted for comments.
