Senior Assistant Commissioner (RDC) Nazim Uddin CollectedA local fisherman becomes his latest victimSenior Assistant Commissioner (RDC) Nazim Uddin—who was recently withdrawn for his involvement in Kurigram journalist Ariful's wrongful incarceration and torture—has yet again picked up another person, allegedly hurling threats at him, only to prove that the punishment handed down to him is not about to stop him from abusing his powers further. Bishwanath Nama Das, a local fisherman, had just obtained bail from Kurigram court after a mobile court led by Nazim had put him and another fisherman Khalequzzaman Maznu behind bars for 11 months on February 26. RDC Nazim executed her orders; he was her right-hand man. Former Kurigram deputy commissioner Sultana Parvin could not be reached for her comments on the matter. Earlier on Sunday, three executive magistrates of Kurigram, including Senior Assistant Commissioner Nazim Uddin, were withdrawn following the countrywide uproar sparked by a midnight mobile court drive that jailed a Dhaka Tribune journalist Ariful Islam.
