The complaint reads that Nur held a secret meeting with an individual named Mendi N Safadi, apparently an agent of Israel's intelligence agency Mossad, in the United Arab Emirates.
"It seems that Nur and his party have been involved in a conspiracy to topple down the elected government in Bangladesh," reads the complaint.
The party's convener Reza Kibria recently made a statement confirming the meeting, Al-Amin wrote in the complaint.
He also said two private television channels of the country recently reported that Nur maintained connection with Chattogram Hill Tracts-based anti-state armed group Kuki-Chin National Front.
A similar complaint was lodged against Nur with Sylhet Kotwali police station earlier in January this year.
