NAGAON, April 29: AIUDF MLA from Dhing, Aminul Islam, was sent to Nagaon Central Jail on Tuesday following a court order, after completion of a four-day police remand.

His remarks also included sharp criticism of the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister, a video of which went viral on social media shortly after. He was produced before a local court on April 25, which granted police four days’ remand for further investigation. Upon completion of the remand period, Islam was again presented before the court on April 29. After reviewing the case details, the court ordered his judicial custody and he was sent to Nagaon Central Jail, sources said.
