UNB, Tangail :
A court here on Sunday rejected the bail plea of Awami League MP Amanur Rahman Khan Rana in Faruk Ahmed murder case. Judge Abul Mansoor Mia of additional district and session judge court- 1 passed the order hearing a bail petition filed by Rana’s lawyer.
Earlier on October 9, the High Court denied bail to MP Rana in the case.
When Rana appeared before the additional district and session judge’s court here ending his 22-month fugitive run on September 18 the court sent him to jail. Rana went into ‘hiding’ after he was accused of killing freedom fighter and member of district unit AL Faruk Ahmed.
On 18 January 2013, the Awami League leader Faruk was shot dead in front of his residence in the district town. Later, Faruk’s wife Nahar Ahmed filed a case in this connection. Fourteen people, including four brothers of Tangail’s influential Khan family, were accused in the murder case.
