A Dhaka court on Saturday placed Daily Sangram Editor Abul Asad on a three-day remand in a case filed under the Digital Security Act.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Court of Dhiman Chandra Mandal passed the order, said Farid Mia, Sub-Inspector and General Reporting Officer (GRO) of Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (CMM) court.
Earlier, Golam Azad, Inspector of Hatirjheel Police Station and also the Investigation Officer (IO) of the case, sought a five-day remand.
He was earlier shown arrested in a case filed by Freedom Fighter Afzal Hossain under the Digital Security Act as his newspaper described former Jamaat leader Abdul Quader Molla, an executed war criminal, as a ‘martyr’ in a report published on December 12.
Meanwhile, leaders of Muktijuddho Mancha vandalised the office of Jamaat-e-Islami mouthpiece ‘Daily Sangram’ following its report.
Leaders and activists of the Mancha led by its President Aminul Islam Bulbul and Secretary Al Mamun gathered in front of the office around 5:00pm and attacked it about an hour later.
Abul Asad is being quizzed at Hatirjheel Police Station, said Biplob Bijoy Talukdar, Deputy Commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP).
On December 12 in 2013, Quader Molla was executed for crimes against humanity including the massacre of unarmed civilians and the killing of intellectuals committed during the War of Independence in 1971.
