Detained former prime minister Khaleda Zia and two of her detained former cabinet colleagues including former law minister Moudud Ahmed were shown arrested on Sunday in connection with Niko graft case.
Following separate petitions filed by the investigation officer (IO) of the case, ACC Assistant Director SM Sahidur Rahman, the order was issued by Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Golam Rabbani, which also showed detained former energy minister AKM Mosharraf Hossain as arrested.
The IO in the petitions filed yesterday -- one against Khaleda Zia and Mosharraf, and the other against Moudud -- mentioned that for the sake of fair investigation the accused needed to be shown as arrested. The other former Prime minister Sheikh Hasina is likely to be shown arrested in this case tomorrow.
