The Detective Branch (DB) of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police has arrested former Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Fazlur Rahman over his alleged involvement in the 2012 abduction of Sukharanjan Bali from the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) premises.
Bali was reportedly taken away when he appeared to testify as a defence witness in a crimes against humanity case against Jamaat-e-Islami leader Delwar Hossain Sayedee, reports UNB.
DB Additional Commissioner Shafiqul Islam on Friday said Fazlur was arrested from his residence in the capital on Thursday night.
Sukharanjan, a carpenter from village Umedpur in Zianagar upazila of Pirojpur, was a listed defence witness for Sayedee.
He alleged that law enforcement agencies picked him up on November 5, 2012, from the tribunal premises while he was being escorted by defence lawyers to testify.
