Another case was filed against former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and four others over allegedly abducting a Supreme Court lawyer nine years ago.
Supreme Court lawyer Sohel Rana, victim of the abduction, filed the application to register the case with the court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Farzana Shakila Sumu Chowdhury on Wednesday (August 14).
After the hearing, Magistrate Farzana Shakila Sumu Chowdhury recorded the statement of the complainant, Sohel Rana, and asked the officer-in-charge (OC) of Uttara West Police Station to register the complaint as a first information report (FIR).
The other accused in the case are former home minister Asaduzzaman Khan, former law minister Anisul Huq, the then inspector general of police AKM Shahidul Haque, and former director general of Rapid Action Battalion Benazir Ahmed.
25 unnamed members of RAB were also made accused in the case.
Yesterday, Hasina, Asaduzzaman and five others were sued over the death of grocery shop owner Abu Sayed in police firing in the capital’s Mohammadpur area during quota reform protests on July 19.
