Tripura police had detained Imran Hossain (24), Imam in a local mosque, Abul Kashem (33), a teacher and Hamid Ali (38), a farmer of Khaidyakhala village under Jatrapur police station area on April 3 last based on the input of Subsidiary Intelligence Bureau (SIB) and later they were booked under several non-bailable sections accusing them of involvement in anti-national activities. Based on the police claim, the court had initially sent them to jail for three days but later police couldn’t produce any evidence to prove their link with JMB and failed to justify the slapping of 120(B), 121, 124(a) of IPC and Sections 13(2), 18, 18(b), 38 and 39 of Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) on them. As a result, the court granted them bail on April 8 and asked them to report to Jatrapur police station after every alternative day. Assam police on the next day arrested them in connection with a sedition case registered with the Jogighopa police station of Bongaigaon.

The court directed Assam police to produce the three suspects before Abhaypur Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate in Bongaigaon district on Monday. BB ARN
