A Dhaka court on Thursday granted bail to Mahmudur Rahman, the former acting editor of Amar Desh, in connection with a case involving an alleged conspiracy to abduct and murder Sajeeb Wazed Joy, the son of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

Tanvir Ahmed Al Amin, lawyer of Mahmudur Rahman, said, "Today we filed an appeal against Mahmudur Rahman's sentence. The court accepted the appeal. Then, we requested bail, and the court granted it."

Earlier, on September 29, Mahmudur Rahman surrendered to Dhaka's Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Mahbubul Haque and requested bail while appealing the sentence. After the hearing, the judge denied his bail request and ordered him to be sent to jail.
