BNP secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir filed a petition with a Dhaka Court on Wednesday (December 13) seeking bail in 10 cases filed with Paltan and Ramna Police Stations.

Sayed Jaynul Abedin Mizbah lawyer of Fakhrul submitted the application to a Chief Metropolitan Magistrate court.

Of the 10 cases, seven were filed with the Paltan Police Station and three with the Ramna Police Station.

Mirza Fakhrul was produced before a court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Shafi Uddin on October 29 showing him arrested in the Chief Justice's residence attack case. The investigation officer of the case then pleaded to keep Fakhrul in jail till the investigation.

Meanwhile, Fakhrul's lawyer sought bail.

After arguments from both sides, the court sent Mirza Fakhrul to jail rejecting bail prayer.
