UNB, Dhaka :
BNP joint secretary general Habib-un-Nabi Khan Sohel was freed from jail on bail on Thursday night.
Sohel walked out of Dhaka Central Jail at Keraniganj around 8:20 pm after his release order reached the jail, said senior jail super Jahangir Kabir.
Earlier on March 6, Sohel was rearrested at the jail gate soon after he was freed on bail.
On Monday, the High Court ordered the law enforcers not to harass or arrest Sohel without any specific case or any arrest warrant after his release from jail following his writ petition.
Sohel, also the member secretary of the party’s Dhaka city unit, was sent to jail on October 9 last year after he surrendered before the court of Dhaka’s Chief Metropolitan Magistrate in 41 violence cases.
The cases were filed against him with different police stations in the capital, including Paltan, Motijheel, Jatrabari, Khilgaon, Darussalam and Ramna, during the BNP-led 20-party alliance’s anti-government movement in 2015.
