Judge Mohammad Golam Mortuza Mozumder of the Speedy Trial Tribunal-2 issued the order as Mohammad Rawshan Alam, complainant and investigation officer (IO) of an arms case, filed it against a fabric trader Sayem Dewan Chanchal.

The court also acquitted the accused as the charges brought against him were not proved. The court directed the acquitted to seek remedies from the competent authorities in accordance with the civil and criminal laws.

In his order, the court mentioned that the prosecution hopelessly failed to prove and establish the charges leveled against the accused. The charges against the accused have been brought upon falsehood, concoction and fabrication. The SI had done it to gain something from others and to evict Chanchal from his rented shop at 29 Kushal Centre at Uttara. So the accused is acquitted, the court added.

In the case filed with Uttara police Station, it was alleged that at about 6:30pm on June 21 last year SI Rawshan Alam and his forces raided Chanchal's rented house at Uttara in the city, recovered a revolver with 4 bullets from under his mattress and arrested him. Later, an arms case was filed in this connection. The SI investigated the case and pressed charge against Chanchal on July 3 last year showing 10 people as prosecution witnesses.

The case was then transferred to the two tribunals, including the present court for its trial.

Nine prosecution witnesses, including SI Rawshan Alam were produced before the court for giving their statements. But no witness could bring real allegations against the accused.

On the other hand, it was proved that the SI brought it against him only to evict Chanchal from his rented shop at 29 Kushal Centre at Uttara in collusion with his landlord one Kamal.
