The National Citizen Party (NCP) has issued a show-cause notice to Senior Joint Chief Coordinator Abdul Hannan Masud for allegedly securing the release of three detainees from police custody without party authorisation, reports UNB.
The notice, signed by Joint Office Secretary Saleh Uddin Sifat, was sent on Wednesday morning, asking him to submit a written reply within three working days.
On Monday night, Dhanmondi police detained three individuals after they were accused of creating chaos in a residential area.
A video showing an argument between police officials and the three individuals went viral on social media, triggering criticism.
The following day, NCP leader Hannan reportedly visited the police station and arranged their release under a bond.
The notice mentioned that one of the detainees, Saiful Islam Rabbi, former convenor of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement's Mohammadpur unit, had previously been relieved of his duties for unethical conduct.
Despite this, Hannan intervened in the matter, raising concerns within the party, the notice said.
Expressing dissatisfaction over Hannan's actions, the party stated that such intervention without consultation undermines party discipline.
"You are instructed to submit a written explanation to the head of the disciplinary committee within three working days, explaining your actions and why organisational measures should not be taken against you," the notice stated.
