The bench of Justice Md Miftah Uddin Choudhury and Justice ANM Bashir Ullah granted the BNP leader bail on Thursday after the end of hearing a rule. Following a writ petition filed by Aslam, the High Court issued the rule in December last year asking the authorities why he should not be given bail. Aslam and Safadi both have admitted to meeting each other in Delhi but claimed nothing covert was discussed. The IGP said Safadi has connections with Mossad and he had met Aslam more than once in India. Information given by Aslam during the questioning "made it clear that he was involved in anti-state activities”, the IGP said.
