On Monday morning, the court granted their request to show their arrest in various cases filed at Rampura, Hatirjheel and Shahbagh police stations. After the hearing, their bail applications were rejected and ordered to be sent to jail.
According to court sources, Rashed Khan Menon and Hasanul Haque Inu were shown arrested in the case of attacking former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia's motorcade and attempting to kill BNP leaders and activists.
In addition, Dr. Inu has been accused in the murder cases of Dipu Moni and Junaid Ahmed Palak and a garment worker named Sohan Shah in Rampura.
The lawyers of the accused applied for bail, but the state opposed it. After the hearing, the court rejected the bail application.
The arrest and imprisonment of former ministers and state ministers has sparked various discussions in the political arena.
Their future political positions depend on the progress of these cases.
