HC order on 2 missing Shibir men
The High Court (HC) yesterday asked the government to explain in three weeks why it should not be directed to produce two Islami Chhatra Shibir (ICS) leaders, who were detained from Savar area on February 4, before the court to prove that they were not detained illegally.
The HC bench of Justice Abdul Awal and Justice Md Akram Hossain Chowdhury passed the orders in response to two separate writ petitions challenging the detention filed by relatives of the ICS leaders on February 12.
According to the petitions, Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) personnel, in plain cloths, detained ICS leaders Al Mukaddas and Md Waliullah on February 4 night at Nabinagar in Savar while the duo were going to Kushtia Islami University by a Hanif Enterprise bus. However, Rab said they have not detained the two.
