SC stays bail of SI Sazzad in murder case during July uprising
This news article from the Dhaka Tribune reports that Bangladesh's Supreme Court (Appellate Division) stayed a High Court bail order for Sub-Inspector Sazzad Uz Zaman of Jatrabari police station, who was charged with the murder of Imam Hasan Taim during the July 2024 uprising. The stay was ordered by Justice Md Rezaul Haque following a petition filed by the state, and SI Sazzad was directed to surrender to the court. The article notes that the High Court had originally granted Sazzad bail on May 20, after which he was released from jail, prompting families of July uprising victims to stage protests demanding his re-arrest and the resignation of the Law Adviser and two High Court justices involved in the bail decision.
