Saber released from jail after getting bail in all cases

Former environment, forest and climate change minister Saber Hossain Chowdhury has been freed from jail as he secured bail in all six cases filed against him.

Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Md Ziadur Rahman passed the order on Tuesday.

Earlier in the day, Saber's lawyer submitted six separate petitions seeking bail on grounds that his client fell ill during interrogation on remand.
