Police on Monday detained a BNP leader for his derogatory comments on Padma Bridge.

The detainee was identified as  Abul Kalam Azad (42), the general secretary of BNP's Charhazari union.

He was arrested at 9 pm Monday, confirmed District Superintendent of Police Shahidul Islam.

The day before the inauguration of the Padma Bridge, a news portal published a news item titled 'Standing and taking pictures  on the Padma Bridge is not allowed."

Later the matter came to the notice of the administration.

"A case will be filed against him," the officer added.
