The detectives have filed a case against Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid’s Personal Officer Motaleb Hossain, ministry staff Nasiruddin and Lakehead Grammar School owner Khaled Hasan Matin.

Sub-inspector Monirul Islam Mrida of detective Branch of Police of South Division filed the case against them on Monday night on various charges, including exchanging bribes.

Motaleb and Nasiruddin took bribe from Matin, assuring him to reopen Lakehead Grammar School, which had been closed earlier over militancy link, said the DB official.

Earlier on Sunday night, Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) arrested missing Lakehead Grammar School owner Khaled Hasan Motin, Nahid’s PO Motaleb Hossain and the Education Ministry staff Nasir Uddin from different areas of the city.

Earlier, Motaleb went missing from the capital on Saturday. His brother filed a general diary with Hazaribagh Police Station in this regard.

UNB said Lakehead Grammar School owner Khaled Hasan Motin also went missing on Saturday.

Nasir Uddin, an upper division clerk of Education Ministry, remained traceless since Thursday afternoon.

On November 6, 2017, the government suspended the academic functions of Lakehead Grammar School at Dhanmondi branch and two other branches at Gulshan on charges of patronising religious extremism and militancy.

According to the Education Ministry, the school was running without approval from the ministry.
