HC order on Shahidul's division upheld
The chamber judge has upheld the High Court order asking the authorities concerned to provide first class division to renowned photographer Shahidul Alam in jail.
Chamber judge justice Hasan Foez Siddique passed the order on Monday after hearing on a petition filed by the state seeking stay on the HC order.
The court kept the petition 'out-of-list', reports UNB.
On September 5, the HC directed the authorities concerned to provide first division to Shahidul Alam.
Later, the petition was filed against the order.
Detectives arrested ShahidulAlam from his Dhanmondi residence on August 5 and a case was filed against him with Ramna Police Station on August 6. He was also placed on a seven-day remand in the case.
Police claimed that he spread propaganda through his Facebook account during the student movement demanding safe roads.
