Ex-B'desh's CJ Khairul Haque detained for sedition

Haque, who served as the country's 19th chief justice from 2010 to 2011, was known for presiding over landmark verdicts, including the 2011 ruling that declared Bangladesh's nonpartisan caretaker government system unconstitutional.

Detective branch officers picked up the 81-year-old former judge from his residence in Dhanmondi area of the capital, Dhaka Metropolitan Police deputy commissioner Talebur Rahman told reporters.

"Haque is accused in three cases. Legal procedures are underway," Rahman said, adding that the former chief justice is likely to be shown arrested in at least one of the cases before being produced in court.
