Joint Secretary General of recently dissolved Hefazat-e-Islam's central committee Mamunul Haque has been placed on a seven-day fresh remand in two cases filed for vandalism.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Sadbir Yasir Ahsan Chowdhury issued the order after police had produced him before the court with 10-day remand prayer.
Earlier, he was taken to court after completion of his seven-day remand in a case filed last year with Mohammadpur Police Station.
On April 18, Joint Secretary General of Hefazat-e-Islam Mamunul Haque was arrested in connection with a case filed over vandalism with Mohammadpur Police Station in 2020.
Later on April 19, a Dhaka court placed him on a seven-day remand in the vandalism case.
Earlier Mamunul, who has been in the limelight due to some recent controversies, was held with a woman he claimed to be his second wife from a resort in Sonargaon on April 3.
Later, Hefazat leaders claimed that Mamunul went to the resort with his “second wife” where locals confined and harassed him before calling in the police.
