Metropolitan Magistrate Shamsul Alam passed the order following a petition by the investigation officer of the case, MA Kader.

The joint forces on March 19 seized 375 CI sheets from a government community centre in the capital run by a committee comprising Pintu's close associates.

In the first information report, police mentioned that Pintu in collusion with other accused of the case used the CI sheets to make roof of the community centre without any administrative order.

According to police, a government order is mandatory for using any government relief material in any state activity.

Meanwhile, another case was filed against Pintu with Hajaribagh Police Station on Monday for embezzlement of government relief materials.

Tipped off, a police team raided the second floor of Baitul Mamur Jame Mosque at Bhagalpur Lane in the city's Hajaribagh area on Monday evening and recovered 73 CI sheets of government relief materials.

Sub-inspector Shahjalal of Hajaribagh Police Station lodged the case.

Pintu was sent to jail after he surrendered to a Dhaka court on February 15.
