A Dhaka court on Tuesday directed the law enforcers to confiscate the assets of journalist Kanak Sarwar and Major (retd) Delwar Hossain in connection with a Digital Security Act case.
Dhaka’s Cyber Tribunal Judge Mohammad Ash Shams Joglul Hossain passed the order, asking to submit a report in this regard within December 13.
On June 30, Shahbagh police Sub-Inspector Mohammad Russel Molla, also investigation officer of the case, submitted a charge sheet to the court against the accused.
Later, the court issued warrant orders against the two fugitives taking the charge sheet into cognizance on November 2.
According to the case, Kanak and Delwar are accused of spreading false, defamatory, instigating and motivated information through digital platforms against many important personalities and institutions of the country.
