A court in the capital yesterday sent BNP joint secretary general Aslam Chowdhury, who was arrested for his alleged involvement in an anti-state plot, to jail, reports UNB. Metropolitan Magistrate Sohel Rana passed the order when Detective Branch inspector Golam Rabbani, also the investigation officer of the case, produced him before the court on completion of his seven-day remand. Earlier on May 16, a court placed the BNP leader on the seven-day remand for interrogation in connection with the anti-state plot. Meanwhile, he was shown arrested in two more cases filed with Motijheel and Lalbagh Police Stations in connection with arson attacks. Metropolitan Magistrates Abdullah Al Masud and Maruf Hossain fixed May 30 for hearing on the remand petitions when the investigations officers of the two cases sought 10-day remand each for him. Plainclothes police arrested Aslam from the capital city on May 15. Several local newspapers published reports attaching more than one photographs of the BNP leader’s meeting with Israeli influential leader Mendi N Safadi. But, Aslam denied any conspiracy against the government although he admitted to meeting Safadi in a tea party in India.
