Tarique on remand on extortion charge

Tarique Rahman, the eldest son of former prime minister Khaleda Zia
and senior joint secretary general of the BNP, was charged with
extortion and remanded in police custody for four days on Thursday.

The police produced him in the chief metropolitan magistrate court
and sought a five-day remand, showing him arrested in an extortion
case filed with Gulshan police.

He was taken straight to the court of metropolitan magistrate,
Mamun-al Rashid, at about 10:40pm.

Tarique, in bullet-proof vest of the Rapid Action Battalion and
helmet, was escorted by members of the RAB and detective branch to the
court.

A huge contingent of joint forces encircled the court's precincts
and the members of the public were not seen on the premises excepting
lawyers and journalists.

Amin Ahmed of Al Amin Construction filed the case with Gulshan
police against Tarique Rahman for demanding Taka one crore as
extortion money in December 2006. The police sought a five-day remand
for Tarique in connection with the case. The complainant alleged that
Tarique refused to receive the amount in cheque when he went to Hawa
Bhaban office of the BNP chairperson at about 7:00pm on December 30,
2006. Amin later gave Taka one crore in cash to Opu, personal
secretary to Tarique, after going to the Hawa Bhaban at about 3:00pm
on January 4, 2007.

After paying the money he was assured of being allowed to do
construction business, Amir said, and alleged that the accused might
have taken similar money from other businessmen in a similar manner.

The hearing of the remand prayer for Tarique started at about
11:00pm.

The prosecution told the court that Tarique had amassed huge wealth
through corruption by providing permission for CNG vehicles, setting
up filling stations, intervening in the power sector, and had siphoned
crores of taka out of the country using his family members and
friends. He was also engaged in tender manipulation.

Besides, he also earned a huge sum of money through the recruitment
and transfer of officials in different departments in the government.

He could not make any satisfactory reply about his source of income
and the huge sums of money deposited with banks, said the prosecution.

The defence lawyers, led by Barrister Khokan, said that Amin was a
candidate of the 4-party alliance in the January 22 polls which were
later postponed. A party candidate cannot file a case against its
senior joint secretary-general, they maintained.

'As there is no prayer for detention of Tarique, he may be released
on bail,' the lawyers pleaded.

After hearing both the sides, the court granted a four-day remand.

Tarique was taken out of the court at about 12:00 midnight.

Tarique was earlier interrogated by intelligence officials at the
cantonment to cross-check the documents and information they have
gathered on his assets at home and abroad from various sources.

Tarique had been in the custody of the Directorate General of
Forces Intelligence since he was picked up by the military-led joint
forces from Khaleda's cantonment residence early Thursday.

Different intelligence agencies had been working hard for more than
a month to get the details of Tarique's wealth.

His closest confidant and business partner, Giasuddin al-Mamun, who
is presumably in the custody of the joint forces, is believed to have
all knowledge of Tarique's wealth and businesses in different
countries, according to sources.

Mamun has reportedly been taken to Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore,
South Africa and India to gather evidence of Tarique's assets.

Tarique himself allowed others to use his influence in amassing
wealth during the five-year tenure of the immediate-past BNP-led
government.

Sources said Mamun had initially remained silent about Tarique's
assets but finally gave in to the joint forcers and disclosed his
friend's businesses and assets and other information which were being
cross-checked.

The intelligence officials also gathered information on his assets
from some other businessmen who were linked with Tarique.

The sources said on Thursday that Tarique had been questioned
several times to cross-check all the information they had gathered so
far on his wealth.

Tarique Rahman in a statement prior to his arrest on Wednesday
night said the joint forces were taking him to an 'unknown place' for
interrogation. He asked why he was being taken away without specific
charges and without a warrant for arrest.

Some activists of the Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal, student wing of the
BNP, staged protests at different places against the detention of
Tarique Rahman.

They demonstrated briefly on the campuses of Dhaka University, Eden
Girls College and Jagannath University in Dhaka. A group of female
activists of the BNP also staged protests in Bogra.

The police dispersed the demonstrators and detained some of them. A
group of about 20 Chhatra Dal activists brought out a procession at
Jagannath University at around 12:30pm, demanding immediate release of
Tarique. The police used truncheons to disperse the protesters and
arrested three of them.

The detained persons are Amir Hossain, a fourth year history
student, Rajib Ahmed, a fourth year management student, and Monirul
Islam, a final year economics student of the university, the Kotwali
police told New Age.

The police filed a case under the speedy tribunal act against the
three.

The Chhatra Dal activists also demonstrated at Jahangirnagar
University and Chittagong University.

Waraqa said, "This is the same Namus (i.e., Gabriel, the Angel who keeps the
secrets) whom Allah had sent to Moses. I wish I were young and could live up
to the time when your people would turn you out." Allah's Apostle asked,
"Will they turn me out?" Waraqa replied in the affirmative and said: "Never
did a man come with something similar to what you have brought but was
treated with hostility. If I should remain alive till the day when you will
be turned out then I would support you strongly." [color=red]But after a few
days Waraqa died and the Divine Inspiration was also paused for a while and
the Prophet became so sad as we have heard that he intended several times to
throw himself from the tops of high mountains and every time he went up the
top of a mountain in order to throw himself down, Gabriel would appear
before him and say, "O Muhammad! You are indeed Allah's Apostle in truth"
whereupon his heart would become quiet and he would calm down and would
return home. And whenever the period of the coming of the inspiration used
to become long, he would do as before, but when he used to reach the top of
a mountain, Gabriel would appear before him and say to him what he had said
before. (Ibn 'Abbas said regarding the meaning of: 'He it is that Cleaves
the daybreak (from the darkness)' (6.96) that Al-Asbah. means the light of
the sun during the day and the light of the moon at night).
