Faruk murder: HC asks Tangail MP to surrender

The High Court today directed Amanur Rahman Khan Rana, Awami League lawmaker of Tangail-3, and his brother Shahidur Rahman Khan to surrender before the lower court concerned in two weeks in the Faruk Ahmed murder case.

The court also ordered the law enforcers not to harass or arrest them during the two-week period.

The HC bench of Justice Farid Ahmed and Justice Mohammad Ullah passed the order after hearing a petition jointly filed by Amanur and Shahidur seeking anticipatory bail in this case.

Police have found evidence of involvement of Amanur and his three brothers in the murder, according to a report of the Prothom Alo published September 14 last year.

Faruk's bullet-hit body was recovered on January 18, 2013, according to the report.
