BNP leader Shamsuzzaman Dudu ‘picked up’ from sister’s Dhaka home

A team of about 15 people, identifying themselves as members of detective branch of police, picked up main opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party vice-chairman Shamsuzzaman Dudu from his sister’s home in the Cantonment area in Dhaka early Monday.

He was picked up sometimes after 12:00am, said the party chairperson’s press wing official Shamsuddin Didar.

The team also picked up Dudu’s nephew and businessman Hasnat Ashraf, he said.

Earlier on Sunday, law enforcers arrested BNP’s two other vice chairmen -- Altaf Hossain Chowdhury and Shahjahan Omar -- from the capital.
