HC summons Motijheel SI
The High Court yesterday summoned a sub-inspector (SI) of Motijheel police station before it to explain why he refused to take a case against the gang that was allegedly involved in making forged notes of taka.
In response to a writ petition, an HC bench of Justice AHM Shamsuddin Chowdhury Manik and Justice Sheikh Md Zakir Hossain ordered SI Md Nasir, who allegedly refused to record the case, to appear before it on March 10 for explanation.
Writ petitioner Sanwar Hossain, also a small trader in Dhaka, on February 17 went to Motijheel police station to file a case against the gang, but SI Nasir refused to take it.
Sanwar on Sunday filed a writ petition with the HC for its direction on the government to take action against the SI.
Advocate Manzill Musrhid appeared for the petitioner while Deputy Attorney General ABM Altaf Hossain stood for the government.
