A Dhaka court has granted police eight days to interrogate Jhenaidah Awami League General Secretary Shaidul Karim Mintu over the murder of ruling party MP Anwarul Azim Anar, reports bdnews24.com. Today, I am the district Awami League's general secretary, having risen from Chhatra League politics. I have always done politics for the people, but now I'm being framed for political reasons," he added. After the hearing, SI Jalal said the court rejected the bail application and remanded Mintu in police custody. Anar, a three-time MP from Jhenaidah-4 and president of the Kaliganj Upazila unit of the Awami League, went to India for medical treatment on May 11.
