Staff Correspondent
BNP acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir was implicated in two more cases yesterday, raising the number of cases against him to 22 in less than nine months.
Fakhrul, now in jail, was not made
accused in these two cases when these were filed with Kalabagan and Paltan police stations in the capital on
Decembers lastyear.
Kalabagan police filed the case for assaulting police and preventing them from discharging their duties in front of Padma General Hospital on Sonargaon Road in the city during the opposition's December9 road blockade.
The same day, Paltan police filed the other case for blasting cocktails and obstructing the law enforcers from discharging their duties at Nightingale intersection in Nayapaltan area.
Many activists of the BNP-led opposition alliance were made accused in the two cases. In the description of the cases, Fakhrul's name was mentioned as an "instigator" of the incidents, and he was finally made accused.
The same way he was earlier made accused in 16 more cases filed with different police stations in the capital on charge of violence during the road blockade.
And as of yesterday, Fakhrul was made accused in 20 of the 38 cases filed with different police stations in the city against hundreds of opposition men in connection with arson, vandalism and rampage during the road blockade by the oppositionalliance.
He has been facing two more cases on charges of torching a vehicle in front of the Prime Minister's Office and throwing cocktails inside the secretariat during a hartal called by the BNP-led opposition combine on April 29 last year.
And in connection with the two cases filed with Tejgaon and Shahbagh police stations on April 29, the BNP leader was arrested and sent to jail on May 16. He was released on bail from the High Court after around a month.
He was arrested again on December 10 as an accused in the two cases for damaging a city corporation garbage truck in Nayapaltan area and blasting cocktailss at Indira Road of Rajabazar area during the opposition's road blockade.
Since his arrest, he has been made accused in different cases filed in connection with violence during the road blockade.
And yesterday, Deboraj Chakrabarti and Khorshed Ali, investigation officers
and sub-inspectors of Kalabagan and Paltan police stations, prayed to the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate's Court in Dhaka for making Fakhrul accused in two more cases.
The CMM's Court accepted their petitions. Police then prayed for placing Fakhrul on a 20-day remand for interrogating him.
The court fixed January 24 and January 27 for hearing on the remand prayers in presence of Fakhrul.
Since his arrest, lawyers for Fakhrul have been fighting for his release on bail. But their efforts did not succeed as he has been made accused in new cases. As of yesterday, he got bail only in five of the 22 cases he has been facing.
