Former state minister for home affairs Lutfozzaman Babar walked out of Dhaka Central Jail in Keraniganj today, after spending 17 years in prison.
Babar's brother-in-law, Shadot Rahman, told that Babar walked out of the jail around 1:45pm.
Earlier, Brigadier General Syed Md Motaher Hossain, inspector general of prisons, said that he will be released after completing all formalities.
Family members, party leaders, and supporters have already gathered outside the jail in anticipation of his release.
Babar was acquitted from all the lawsuits filed against him, including the two cases filed over the 10- trucks arms haul. As a result, there is no obstacle to Babar's release.
