Bangladesh: Two journalists allegedly linked to ex-PM Hasina held by police

"Journalists Shyamal Dutta and Mozammel Babu were detained by the local people and handed over to the police", the police official told media.

Shyamal Dutta is a former general secretary of National Press Club, Dhaka and Editor of Bengali daily Bhorer Kagoj. Mozammel Babu is the owner of private television channel, 71 TV.

"There is a case against the two detained journalists and we have kept them in safe custody", the official added, without giving further details. The detained journalists are alleged to be close to ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

A month ago, a studentled movement ousted Bangladesh Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina, after weeks of protests and clashes that killed over 600 people.
