Banglabandha UP chairman sent to jail for beating up plaintiff in court

A Panchagarh court on Tuesday sent Banglabandha Union Parishad Chairman Kudrat-e-Khuda Milon to jail in a case filed over beating up a plaintiff in the court premises.

Senior Judicial Magistrate Md Matiur Rahman also rejected bail for the chairman when he appeared before the court seeking bail.

He was granted a six-week bail in this case previously, on expiry of which he appeared in court today seeking an extension.

According to the case, Milon’s associates beat up the plaintiff in the canteen of the Chief Judicial Magistrate’s Court on September 16. Later on that day, sub-inspector Mozibar Rahman filed a case against seven people, including Milon at the Panchagarh Sadar Police Station. The other accused in the case are out on bail.

This time, Milon is contesting for the UP chairman post as an independent candidate.
