| [Bangla Daily Star] Detectives on Sunday pressed charges against five people including the Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal ...student wing of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP)... chief with blasting bombs at the information minister's residence in June. The Detective Branch of police later prayed to a Dhaka court to issue arrest orders for three absconding accused including JCD President Abdul Kader Bhuiyan Jewel. The rest two defendants are already behind the bars. On June 9, four homemade crude bombs were hurled at the capital's Mirpur residence of Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu. Eyewitnesses reported that the kaboom occurred as soon as four young cycle of violence-riders appeared and left the vicinity. Although no one was hurt during the kaboom, the crude bombs impaled the walls and windows of the first and second floors of the minister's residence. Following the kaboom, detectives said Abdul Kader Bhuiyan Jewel, and Dhaka city (north) senior vice-president, Sharifuddin Jewel had planned the attack while Akil Mahmud, a JCD central committee member, and his associate Firoz Mahmud, senior vice president of Mirpur thana unit JCD, supervised the operation. Two of the five accused: Akil and Mahbubul Alam, a JCD activist of Titumir College unit, are already in prison. Abdul Kader Bhuiyan, Sharifuddin Jewel and Firoz are still in hiding. |
