DHAKA: BNP’s vice-chairman Shamsuzzaman Dudu has been picked up from Matsya Bhaban area in Dhaka on Monday.

BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi Ahmed told Banglanews that police detained Dudu when he was on way to Shahbagh from Matsya Bhaban area by his car around 12:08pm.

Dudu was returning after attending a human chain programme that was formed demanding the unconditional release of the party chairperson Khaleda Zia after withdrawing all cases filed against her.

Terming it fully ‘unfair and undemocratic’, Rizvi demanded his unconditional release immediately.

Ramna division Deputy Commissioner Maruf Hossain Sardar also confirmed the detention of Dudu to Banglanews.
