The estranged wife of former Bangladesh dictator Hussain Mohammad Ershad, arrested earlier this month on charges including threatening to kill her husband, remained behind bars yesterday after a fresh allegation of money laundering was filed against her. "She was granted bail on Thursday but when I went to the jail with the court order I was told there was another charge of money laundering against her," Sayed Quamrujjaman Mahbub, her lawyer, told AFP. Money laundering is a non-bailable offence in Bangladesh.Bidisha, 38, has been in police custody since June 4 after the one-time military strongman, now 77, lodged complaints with police. In addition to the money laundering charge, she is accused of theft, criminal damage, forgery, bigamy, and threats to kill, said another member of her legal team, Sarah Hossen. Two days after Bidisha's arrest, her husband left the country telling reporters she was a bigamist. He said he believed she was still married to her former husband Peter Wilson, of Britain, because she named him as her spouse in a 2002 passport application.
