According to jail code, it is a punishable offence for a police officer appointed with a police station to enter jail and search a prisoner’s cell without permission from district magistrate or court.” According to Babul’s lawyer the search was done to keep his client under mental pressure as on September 8 he lodged a complaint against six officials of Police Bureau of Investigations (PBI) for torturing and attempting to kill him in police custody. Investigation in the incident and direction to Feni jail superintendent for providing security to Babul has been sought in the appeal made to court, he said.
