Nurul Islam Sujan, former railways minister in the 2018 Awami League government, was arrested in a hospital on Monday.
He was detained by the Jatrabari police from Bangladesh Specialised Hospital in Shyamoli, according to a UNB report.
Wari Division Deputy Commissioner Md Saleh Uddin said, “We arrested him in connection with a case filed at Jatrabari Police Station.”
