Police have arrested former lawmaker from the Manikganj-1 constituency and Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) director Naimur Rahman Durjoy from his residence in the capital’s Lalmatia area on Wednesday night.

Additional Superintendent of Manikganj Police Imtiaj Mahbub confirmed the matter.

He said Durjoy was taken to Manikganj Sadar Police Station and would be produced before court on Thursday after completing legal procedures.

He is accused in multiple cases filed with Sadar and Daulatpur police stations in Manikganj.

Earlier on January 21, the Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Court ordered the seizure of Durjoy’s 2,523 sq ft flat, land, and three vehicles in Lalmatia over corruption charges. The court also ordered the freezing of 12 bank accounts in his name.
