Earlier on 21 August, a court sent Bodi, former AL lawmaker from Cox's Bazar-4 constituency, to jail in an attempted murder case.
Bodi was arrested the night before from Chattogram's GEC intersection area in a case filed over allegations of attempted murder of BNP leader Mohammad Abdullah.
Abdullah filed the case with Teknaf Police Station on 19 August.
Bodi is a two-time Member of Parliament from Cox's Bazar-4 (Ukhiya-Teknaf) constituency.
He was denied nomination in the December 2018 national election in the face of fierce criticism for his involvement in various illicit activities including yaba smuggling.
