A Dhaka court on Tuesday again rejected the bail petition of ruling party MP Golam Maula Rony in a case filed for assaulting two journalists of Independent Television.
Judge (in-charge) Md Akhtaruzzaman of the Court of Metropolitan Sessions Judge passed the order after hearing on a petition filed by Rony challenging the bail rejection order of another lower court.
On July 25, a Dhaka court sent Rony to jail rejecting his bail prayer in the case filed for assaulting two Independent TV journalists — Imtiaz Momin Sony and Mohsin Mukul Bakul.
Rony along with his supporters reportedly assaulted the duo when they went to Rony’s office on the 9th floor of ‘Meherba Plaza’ at Topkhana Road in the city to verify some allegations against the MP on July 21.
A team of DB police arrested Rony in the city’s Badda area on July 24, hours after the issuance of arrest warrant against him.
