Special Superintendent of Police (CID) of Comilla, Mohammad Rezwan, said that Comilla's Iqbal Hossain, who was arrested for keeping the Holy Quran in the worship hall, is neither a wanderer nor a madman. In response to the question whether Iqbal is crazy or a wanderer, he said, 'Iqbal fled to Cox's Bazar to hide himself from everyone after the incident. It is never possible for a madman to take a train to Chittagong, and from there to Cox's Bazar.'
