A Chittagong court yesterday ordered to send the arrested Hefajat-e Islam nayeb-e-ameer Mufti Izharul Islam Chowdhury to jail in three cases.
The court of Chittagong Metropolitan Magistrate Abdul Quader passed the order after police produced Izharul before the court in connection with three cases filed for a deadly explosion at his (Izhar) madrasa.
