Complainant jailed for false case

COURT CORRESPONDENT
The Speedy Trial Court, Dhaka (South), yesterday sentenced a complainant to three years' imprisonment for filing a false case against six persons to harass them.
Magistrate Muksudur Rahman Patwary sentenced Mohammad Hasib for filing the case, falsely accusing the six persons for extortion.
The magistrate also directed the commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan police (DMP) to take departmental action against the investigation officer (IO) of the case for being partial in investigation.
In the case filed with Dhanmondi thana on September 9 last year, Hasib, alleged that six persons -Nasir, Manik, Mintu, Kalam, Mizan and Jamal--had demanded Tk 50,000 as toll from him at his shop at

Elephant Road. On refusal, the gang beat him.
He caught Nasir, Manik and Mizan with the help of people nearby and handed them over to Dhanmondi thana, he had complained in the case.
On the same day, Hasib filed an extortion case with Dhanmondi thana against the six persons.
On September 15 last year, IO of the case Sub-inspector Saidur Rahman submitted a charge sheet to the CMM's court, Dhaka against Nasir, Manik and Mizan, dropping the names of Mintu, Kalam and Jamal. Nine people were shown as prosecution witnesses.
After cross-examination of five prosecution witnesses and two defence witnesses, the court found that Hasib was an "extortionist".
The court found that he had caught three of the six persons when they went to meet him at his shop and handed them over to Dhanmondi police, falsely accusing them of extortion.
Hasib and the accused hail from Chandpur. The court found that Hasib filed the "false case" against the accused following to a feud in their area.
Finding the investigation "flawed" and the charges "false, fabricated and concocted", the court on November 27 last year acquitted the accused and asked Hasib to reply on January 11 why legal action would not be taken against him.
The complainant appeared before the court yesterday and submitted a written reply. As the reply was not satisfactory, the court sentenced him and ordered sending him to Dhaka Central Jail.
