UNB, Sylhet

The family members of detained Mayor Badar Uddin Ahmed Kamran met with him at Comilla jail yesterday.

Kamran's family and lawyers told UNB that they would appeal to the court Sunday for his bail.

Kamran contested the Aug4 polls from detention and won the mayoral post.

His party Awami League has renewed demand for his release from jail.

Kamran faces three cases on charges of corruption but he earlier pleaded innocent.

He was rearrested on May 28, 2007 after he was released from jail on bail.
