Adam Tamizi Haque gets bail

The High Court has granted bail to Haque Group Chairman Adam Tamizi Haque in a case filed under the Cyber Security Act (CSA).

As a result, there is no bar for him to release from prison since there are no other cases against him, his lawyer said.

The bench of Justice Md Iqbal Kabir and Justice Md Aktaruzzaman passed the order on Thursday (April 4).

Lawyer Barrister Sakir Uddin Ahmed Bappi stood for Tamizi Haque while Deputy Attorney General Md Monirul Islam represented the state during the hearing in the court.

Earlier on January 4, a Dhaka court sent Adam Tamizi Haque to jail in the CSA case.

A case was filed against Tamizi with Dakkhinkhan police station under the Cyber Security Act (CSA) for making derogatory remarks about the prime minister and the country on social media.

He was arrested from his Gulshan residence on December 10 and taken to a rehab centre for mental health examination the following day under DB custody.
