Once a listed criminal, Md Saidur Rahman Shahid alias Shahid Commissioner has been granted bail under the Arms Act, reports bdnews24.
Dhaka Metropolitan Special Tribunal- 5 judge Ruhul Amin granted him bail on Monday after his lawyer moved the bail plea on health ground.
His lawyer Mizanur Rahman stated Shahid had been suffering from kidney, prostate gland and diabetes related illness.
On Feb 4, 2014 Shahid was arrested by RAB officials from a house in the Dhaka's Gendaria area.
They recovered three pistols, one revolver and 62 rounds of ammunition at that time.
RAB official Niti Bikash Dutta filed a case on the same day under the Arms Act.
On May 19, 2014 the investigating official Sub-inspector (SI) Pradip Kumar submitted the charge sheet.
Later, on Nov 24 the trial began at the court.
On March 31 the court heard partial statement of the plaintiff.
The infamous terrorist known as Shahid Commissioner hails from the Old Dhaka area.
There are at least four murder cases, including that of Atiqullah Chowdhury of Keraniganj, against him.
Shahid came out in public last year after lying low for quite some time, before contesting the Janary 5 polls, which he lost.
