The High Court today directed the inspector general of police to give Tk 20 lakh as compensation to Md Arman, a technician at a Benarasi Palli in Mirpur, in 30 days as police personnel have wrongly arrested him and kept him in jail for around four years instead of the original accused in a drug case.
The court also asked the authorities concerned of the government to immediately release Arman from Dhaka central jail.
While delivering the verdict on a writ petition today, the HC ordered the IGP and commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police to withdraw four police officers, who were discharging duties under Pallabi Police Station when Arman was arrested, from their workplaces and to attach them to another place.
