Judge Mohammad Momin Ullah of the Metropolitan Sessions Judge's Court passed the order following a criminal appeal filed by the defence lawyers.

Earlier, lower courts rejected Paban's bail petitions thrice saying that the charges brought against him were primarily proved.

Moreover, Paban's accomplice Zahirul Islam Robin has confessed to a magistrate that he and Paban were involved with an organised carjacking ring.

Moving the bail petition, the defence lawyers on Wednesday told the court that their client was implicated in the case with a motive to harass him politically.

They said Paban bought the car from Robin but he was implicated in the case as part of a conspiracy. Moreover, Paban's name was not mentioned in the FIR.

Opposing the submission on the bail petition by the defence lawyers, the prosecution told the court that Paban was directly involved in the incident.

Detective Branch (DB) of police on June 7 this year arrested Paban on Bailey Road in the capital with a stolen Toyota car, which was hijacked by three criminals from its owner at Motijheel on October 13 last year.

DB produced Paban before the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate's court on June 8. The court then ordered to send him to jail rejecting the bail prayer.
