Islami Oikya Jote chairman Fazlul Haque Amini on Sunday alleged that detective branch police had arrested his son in the Old Town of Dhaka without reason.
Amini said police had picked up his younger son, Abul Hasanat from Dolaikhal in Sutrapur area where he had gone at about 11:00am to
have his car repaired at a motor workshop.
But the police denied they had arrested the son of Amini, also chief of Islamic Law Implementation Committee which had enforced a daylong hartal across the country on April 4 in protest at the National Women's Development Policy branding it anti-Islamic.
Addressing a briefing at his party office at Lalbagh on Sunday afternoon, Amini, an ally of the opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party, alleged that the government had detained his son to destroy his family.
'We will not retreat from our stand against the women development policy which is against Islamic laws,' he said.
He also demanded immediate release of his son and all activists of his party, who, he said, were arrested during the April 4 hartal.
Islamic Law Implementation Committee publicity secretary Moulana Ahalullah Wasel said, 'Two companions of Hasanat had told us that the people who had picked him up were carrying firearms and walki-talkies.'
Deputy commissioner of detective branch Monirul Islam flatly denied the charge. 'The police did not arrest any son of Amini,' he told New Age.
