Court to pass order on Rozina Islam’s bail Sunday
A Dhaka court has set Sunday to pass order on Prothom Alo senior reporter Rozina Islam’s bail petition in a case filed under the Official Secrets Act.
Metropolitan Magistrate Baki Billah fixed the date today (Thursday) after the bail petition was heard virtually.
Rozina was not produced before the court during the hearing.
Citing the reason of delaying the bail order, the court also allowed time for prosecution to submitting some important evidence before the court to examine on Sunday.
Earlier, the prosecution, during the hearing, wanted to submit a video that circulated last night. In the video, Rozina was found saying that she had made a mistake and would be willing to give a written undertaking.
