Jatri Kalyan Samity's Mozammel gets bail

A court on Tuesday granted bail to Bangladesh Jatri Kalyan Samity Secretary General Mozammel Haque Chowdhury in a case filed on extortion charge, reports UNB.

Metropolitan Magistrate Md Mazharul Haque passed the order after hearing a bail petition filed by Mozammel's lawyer Barrister Jotirmoy Barua.

However, the Jatri Kalyan Samity leader cannot be released from jail as he is facing another case filed with Kafrul Police Station under the Explosive Substances Act.

The investigation officer of the case earlier appealed to the court to show him arrested in the case while the court set September 13 to hear the matter.
