Councillor candidate arrested in city
Friday, 17 April 2015
Police have arrested BNP-endorsed Dhaka councillor aspirant Kawsar Ahmed at Mirpur in the city. He is accused in five cases filed over acts of sabotage. Dhaka City police earlier said they would arrest city polls candidates, accused in cases, if they do not secure bail. The BNP, which boycotted the 2014 parliamentary election but endorsed candidates for the city polls, has criticised the police stance and demanded bail for its aspirants for a "level playing field". — bdnews24.com
