A Pirojpur court yesterday sent war criminal Delowar Hossain Sayedee's son Masood Sayedee to jail in connection with a case filed under the explosives substances act.

Additional District and Session Judge Mohammad Samsul Haque passed the order after cancelling his bail petition.

The court also sent two other Jamaat leaders -- Tofazzal Hossain Farid, amir of Pirojpur Jamaat, and Abdur Rab, general secretary of Pirojpur Jamaat -- to jail in another case filed under the arms act.
