A Dhaka court on Sunday put Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat on a six-day remand in a case filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission.
Samrat is the expelled president of Juba League’s Dhaka south city unit.
Metropolitan Sessions Judges Court judge Imrul Kayes gave the order in an ACC case filed against Samrat for amassing illegal properties worth TK 2.94 crore.
On November 12, 2019, the Anti-Corruption Commission filed two separate cases against Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat and his associate Enamul Haque Arman on charges of amassing illegal wealth.
A Dhaka court on October 15, 2019, placed Samrat on a 10-day remand in two cases – one under narcotics control act and the other under arms act.
On October 6, 2019, the Rapid Action Battalion arrested Samrat along with his associate Armanul Haque Arman from Chuddagram of Cumilla.
Samrat was sentenced by a RAB executive magistrate to imprisonment for six months for violating the wildlife protection law and Arman for the same period for violating the anti-narcotic law.
A RAB 1 team led by commanding officer Lieutenant Colonel Sarwar Bin Kashem conducted a five-hour raid at the office of Samrat in capital’s Kakrail and seized a pistol with five bullets, two sticks and two electric-shocking machines, some 1,160 pieces of Yaba tablets, 19 bottles of foreign liquor and two skins of kangaroos.
