“We’ve given Khaleda Zia the division in jail soon after the court order reached the jail this afternoon,” Inspector General of Prisons brigadier general Syed Iftekhar Uddin told newsmen.

A nine-member delegation of lawyers headed by advocate Sanaullah Mia handed over the court order to the jail authority regarding Khaleda Zia’s division in jail this afternoon, reports BSS.

Earlier, home minister Asaduzzaman Khan said they will take measures relating to allow BNP chairperson and former prime minister Khaleda Zia division in the jail following a court order.

He said this after an inter-ministerial meeting on security arrangements ahead of the upcoming International Mother Language Day.

"Khaleda Zia has been kept in the jail considering her social status as she is a chairperson of a big party like the BNP," the minister added.

This afternoon, a Dhaka court passed an order asking the authorities concerned to give the BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia division in the jail as per the jail code.
