Mizanur Rahman, a youth leader accused of throwing eggs at NCP Member-Secretary Akhtar Hossain in New York, has been released on bail. He was freed at 9 PM Tuesday after being arrested Monday night outside Jackson Heights’ Nabanno Restaurant.
Police identified and detained Mizanur after the incident, in which several Awami League and Jubo League activists also hurled verbal abuse at Tasnim Zara and threw eggs at Akhtar. The confrontation occurred as Dr. Yunus’s delegation was leaving the airport under police escort.
