In Amin Bazar, each detainee is whisked away inside the 20-bed Amin Bazar hospital, where they are kept inside the premises, confirms The Business Standard reporter on the ground 

Speaking from behind the gate of the hospital, where he was detained, a Manikganj BNP leader said, "I was going to Dhaka with three of my relatives. From there, my relatives would go to the airport and I was to attend the BNP rally. But the police detained all four of us at the check posts."

Ata although while there were several cases against him, he had been granted bail in all of them. 

"Police didn't even tell me why I was detained," he said.
