Jamaat leader, 4 others held

Chittagong police last night detained five people for their alleged attempt to fuel unrest among garment workers.
The detainees include Jamaat-e-Islami's district unit (Chittagong South) general secretary Mohammad Nurullah.
The law enforcers seized Tk 17 lakh from their possession and a microbus that was being used to transport the detainees.
Police suspected that the money was being kept for distribution among the garment workers to fuel the unrest, said Mohiuddin Selim, officer-in-charge of Kotwali Police Station.
Following a tip-off, a team of police raided the office of Accord Holdings, a real estate company, at the port city's Dewan Bazar area around 9:00pm and detained the five.
The other detainees are Accord Holding's chairman Md Shahjahan Mohiuddin, its managing director Mohammad Selim, Abu Sayeed and Shahdat Hossain, of Satkania upazila.
