Journalist Munni Saha
Dhaka, Dec 01 - Journalist Munni Saha has been released from the custody of the Detective Branch, just hours after being detained from Karwan Bazar in the capital on Saturday night.
She was handed over to her family on payment of a bond shortly after midnight (technically Sunday).
Quoting Rezaul Karim Mallick, additional commissioner (DB) of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police, The Daily Star reported that Munni was released under the obscure Section 497 of the CrPC.
It means she must appear in court to seek bail and comply with future police summons.
Earlier, a DB team picked up Munni Saha from the Karwan Bazar area around 9:30 on Saturday night, said DB Additional Commissioner Rezaul Karim Mallik.
He said that Munni Saha faces several cases in Dhaka.
Responding to questions, Mallik said that they have not yet determined under which police station's case the arrest will be shown.-UNB
