Mohammad Fayez, who has been charged under Bangladesh's Digital Security
Act (DSA) for inciting people via social media which led to the
widespread communal violence in the country earlier this month, has been
sent to jail.

recorded the statement on Friday after which Fayez was sent to prison,
said Khan Mohammad Rezwan, police super of CID, Cumilla district.

confessed to the Magistrate that he reached the Nanua Dighir Par puja
mandap in Cumilla city on October 13 after he heard that the Holy Quran
was placed there. He then spread it through Facebook Live," Rezwan told
