Bangladesh releases Jamaat-e-Islami leader after 15 months
DHAKA: Bangladesh has freed the head of Jamaat-e-Islami party, officials said Tuesday, 15 months since counter-terrorism officers arrested him after he vowed to take part in anti-government protests. The release of Jamaat-e-Islami party chief Shafiqur Rahman comes as political tension eases following Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s fourth consecutive election victory in January. Rahman, 65, was released from a high-security prison outside the capital Dhaka on Monday, just hours before the Islamic holy month of Ramazan began in the Muslim-majority country, party spokesman Matiur Rahman Akand told AFP. “The high court granted him bail,” he said.
