Chittagong JMB chief sent to Durance Vile™ for 10 years*
2008-09-10
A court here yesterday awarded 10 years' imprisonment to Javed Iqbal alias Mohammad, 28, Chittagong divisional chief of outlawed Jamaatul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), in a case filed in connection with countrywide serial blasts on August 17, 2005.

Judge Shafiqul Islam of the Divisional Speedy Trial Tribunal gave the verdict, sentencing Mohammad to jail for bombing at GEC intersection in the port city as part of the serial blasts. The court also fined him Tk 5,000, in default he is to suffer another year in jail.

Two other accused--Abu Jarr and Delwar Hossain Jahid--were acquitted of the charge. The court exempted JMB kingpins Abdur Rahman, Siddiqur Rahman alias Bangla Bhai and Ataur Rahman Sunny from the case since they were executed in the judge killing case last year.

Javed Iqbal has so far been awarded 124 years' imprisonment in different terms in nine cases. He has the death sentence on 12 systems is also an accused in seven other cases, which are now under trial at different courts in Chittagong.
