A Feni court yesterday sent a local Swechchhasebak League leader and one of his associates to jail in a case filed over gangraping a teenage girl in the district's Sonagazi upazila.

Police said they detained the duo -- Imam Hossain, 45, general secretary of Chardarbesh union unit Swechchhasebak League, and his associate Md Riad, 28 -- for interrogation on Saturday after the 15-year-old victim filed a complaint with Sonagazi Police Station.

Later, in the night, the victim's father filed a rape case against them, he said.

Today, the accused were produced before the court, which sent them to jail, added the OC.
