Mahdi Hasan, the Habiganj district member secretary of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, was not released despite continuous protests in Dhaka and Habiganj. On the night of January 3, he was taken to a magistrate’s residence, raising hopes among supporters. However, his release did not occur as the court session could not be held due to the magistrate’s absence.
According to district convener Arif Talukdar, the bail process was underway, and he, along with the organization’s spokesperson Ashraful Islam Sujon and senior police officials, went to the magistrate’s residence in a microbus. Despite all preparations, the absence of the magistrate prevented the court from convening, leaving Mahdi Hasan in custody. He was detained by the Detective Branch police from a house in Shaestaganj area on Saturday evening, though police have not disclosed under which case he was arrested.
As of early Sunday morning, leaders and activists of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement continued their sit-in in front of Habiganj Sadar Police Station, demanding Mahdi Hasan’s release.
