On April 17 of last year a report was published in the daily ‘Amader Samay’ under the title ‘Another Jahlam in prison’.
It is said that, although he was not a criminal, Jahlam, a jute factory worker, had to be imprisoned for 3 years as a defendant in 33 counterfeiting cases. After passing through many ghats, he was finally released due to the intervention of the higher court. Without cutting his resh, another ignorant act has come out in search of ‘our time’.
“It is known that the craftsman Pallabi Benarsi Md. Arman, despite being innocent, is serving a sentence of 10 years for 3 years. The real defendant in the case is drug dealer Shahabuddin Bihari, who was sentenced to 10 years in a drug case at the Pallabi police station in the capital. But in his identity, Arman is being punished instead. “
According to the report, his family has strongly alleged that the police arrested him and handed him over to the court on behalf of Shahabuddin, as there was only one match in his father’s name. On the other hand, the real defendant Shahabuddin runs a drug business out of jail.
Arman has been living a life of inhumanity in jail for 3 long years in place of Shahabuddin, the son of the late Yasin alias Mohiuddin, due to police neglect or collusion.
Epilepsy patient Arman, a resident of 13 Hats, Block-A, Section-10, Tejgaon, a non-local relief camp in Pallabi, should be punished without blame instead of Shahabuddin, as there is only one similarity in the name of his father (the late Yasin).
Pallabi police arrested Arman on the morning of January 26, 2016. Three days later, he was turned over to court. Since then he has been imprisoned. Shahabuddin Bihari, a convicted drug trafficker, still sells drugs in the Mirpur 10, 11, 12 and Mohammadpur areas of the capital.
According to our weather report, on the night of August 30, 2005, Shahabuddin was arrested along with 40 fencidyl from a floor on the ground floor of Building No. 6, Lane No. 6, C-Block, Section 6, Pallabi.
He lived there with his family. In addition to Shahabuddin, two of his associates, Sohail Mollah and Mamun alias Sagar, were also arrested in the operation led by DB inspector Abdul Awal. A case was filed against them at the Pallabi Police Station under article 19 (1) / 3 (a) of the Narcotics Law.
The DB police, SI Mohammad, brought an indictment against the three detainees on 16 September that year. Sirajul Islam Khan. Shahabuddin was granted bail on March 5, 2006 after serving two years in prison in the case.
He turned himself in to court on January 17, 2011, and was released on bail on a signed bond. His brother Manik became the guarantor. But after that it became a Ferrari without facing the law.
In that case, on October 1, 2012, Shahabuddin and his two accomplices were sentenced to 10 years in prison and fined 5,000 Tk each by Judge Farooq Ahmed of the Dhaka Crime Suppression Court for violating public security. . An arrest warrant was issued for the fugitive Shahabuddin.
Pallabi police station police conducted an operation in the area of section 10, 13 hats, block-A of Pallabi on January 26, 2016 at around 9:30 am. SI Russell from the then police station, currently working at the Mirpur model police station, was involved in the operation. Arman had breakfast at home and went to a nearby tea shop for tea. The assailants captured him from there.
In addition to this report, Arman’s mother filed a court petition in July last year. There, Arman’s arrest was challenged and compensation was requested. After a preliminary hearing, the Superior Court issued a rule.
Said the craftsman Pallabi Benarsi. To ensure that Arman was not illegally detained, the rule sought to know why he would not be ordered to appear in court.
The rule also asks why Arman’s arrest warrant should not be declared illegal and why his release and compensation should not be ordered.
