Shajahan Khan sent to jail before remand ends due to sickness


Former shipping minister Shajahan Khan has been sent to jail before the end of his seven-day remand due to illness, reports bdnews24.com.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Ali Haider Kamal issued the order to send him to jail on Sunday.
Dhanmondi Model Police Station Investigating Officer and Sub Inspector Md Kokhon Mia filed an application to move Shajahan to jail after he fell sick during his remand period.
After the hearing, the court ordered to send him to jail considering his physical condition.
On September 6, the court granted police permission to interrogate Shajahan for seven days over the killing of a young man in Dhaka's Jigatala during the mass uprising.
Shajahan was taken into custody from Dhanmondi on September 5.
A member of the Awami League Presidium, Shajahan is also the executive president of the Bangladesh Sramik Federation.
