Controversial singer Mainul Ahsan Noble, recently arrested in a rape case, was released on bail Wednesday morning from Dhaka Central Jail in Rajendrapur, South Keraniganj. His newlywed wife was present at the prison gate to receive him.
The couple spent some time on the prison premises following his release at around 9:30am, seen riding a motorcycle together and appearing in good spirits.
Jail Superintendent AKM Masum confirmed that Noble was released after all legal documents were verified and processed.
Noble was arrested on May 20 in connection with a case filed by a woman who alleged that he had held her captive for seven months and subjected her to rape and abuse.
During the bail hearing, Noble’s lawyer informed the court that the woman was, in fact, his wife. However, no marriage certificate was presented at the time.
Following a court directive, the couple’s marriage was formally solemnised on June 19 in front of Dhaka Central Jail under the supervision of prison authorities. Four family members witnessed the ceremony.
The court has since been officially notified of the marriage.
