The members of law enforcing agencies, including detectives, are still in dark about the whereabouts of former State Minister and BNP leader ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milan.
He tactfully dodged the cops personnel after arriving in the country from aboard recently, Home Ministry sources said.
At least 28 arrest warrants have already been issued against him, they said.
The cops personnel were asked to trace him at any cost within a short time as he violated the bail conditions by leaving the country.
Meanwhile, fearing abduction, Ehsanul Hoque Milan has gone into hiding, according to his family.
Nazmunnahar Baby, wife of Milan, alleged that he feared that he could have been abducted or killed while appearing on the Chandpur court premises. The BNP leader, who returned home from abroad after nearly five years, could not surrender in the court as plainclothesmen and ruling Awami League leaders and activists were following him, she added.
At this, Milan sought the Election Commission’s intervention to let him appear before the court safely.
On Sunday, Milan’s wife, on behalf of the BNP leader, requested the EC in this regard through a letter to the chief election commissioner (CEC) at the city’s Nirbachan Bhaban. But, she could not meet the CEC, reports our Chandpur Correspondent quoting family sources.
“My husband can’t appear in the court as Chandpur court areas are totally surrounded by the police and detectives,” she said.
It had not been possible for her to meet CEC even after waiting about two hours, according to Milan’s wife.
“Later, I met election commissioners Rafiqul Islam and Kabita Khanam and talked about this. They assured me that they would look into the matter,” Nazmunnahar said.
In the letter, Milan said that due to prolonged stay abroad, he had failed to appear before the court in what he termed ‘false’ cases against him.
The former state minister also expressed his fears in the letter that police will arrest him in the ‘false’ cases before reaching the court in an ‘attempt to torture him in police custody’.
