Two leaders—a BNP convenor and a student activist from the Anti-Discrimination Movement—were released on bail a day after being arrested for allegedly extorting money at the Kurigram’s Jatrapur market without official lease documents. BNP leader Mahabubur Rahman and activist Alomgir Hossain were detained by army personnel. Reports indicate they attempted to collect tolls without prior approval or official paperwork, prompting their arrest after complaints.
