Case filed against 13 policemen including former Jashore SP

A case was filed last night against 13 policemen including former Jashore superintendent of police Anisur Rahman on charge of kidnapping a businessman in Jashore, demanding ransom and attempting to kill him in 2014.
The other accused include Milu Mia Biswas, former Jashore Assistant Superintendent of Police (A Circle); former sub-inspectors Shoyeb Uddin Ahmed, Azgar Ali, Jamal Uddin, and former assistant sub-inspector Israfil Hossain, former constables Roknuzzaman, Salauddin, Azam, Sabuj, Abdullah Al Kafi, Mostafizur Rahman, Gobinda and two other persons.
On November 14, Masudur Rahman Nannu filed a petition with a local court, and as per the court order, a case was registered last night.
According to the case statement, Masudur Rahman Nannu is a businessman in Jashore. On May 31, 2014, as per instruction of then SP Anisur Rahman, the other accused abducted Nannu from in front of Manihar Cinema Hall in the town. Then, they took him to the Chanchra Police Outpost and tortured him and demanded Tk 25 lakh, threatening that they would kill him in “crossfire” if he fails to pay the ransom.
Nannu was later released when his younger brother Mahamudur Rahman Babu gave Tk 10 lakh to the accused.
But even after receiving the money, the accused shot him in the leg. After that, the police admitted the bullet-injured victim to Jashore General Hospital. Additionally, an arms case was filed against him.
As his condition deteriorated, Nannu was taken to Dhaka hospital under police custody for better treatment. After treatment, the police brought him back to Jashore and sent him to the prison through the court.
Since the accused were influential in the area, Nannu was released on bail later and could not take any legal action against the accused. He filed the case because the environment is currently favourable, according to the case statement.
