Barrister Suman sent to jail

A Dhaka court has sent former independent lawmaker Barrister Syed Sayedul Haque Suman to jail after his bail was denied on completion of a five-day remand in a case over an attempt to murder, reports UNB.

The court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Sefatuallh passed the order on Sunday.

Though the defendant's lawyer submitted a petition for bail, the prosecution opposed it. After hearing arguments from both sides, the court ordered to send him to jail, said Mirpur Model Police Station's Sub Inspector Abdul Halim.
