In April 2004 , Haque 's term for the IGP office was extended for one more year . During his term , the incident of 2004 Dhaka grenade attack occurred in August 2004 that killed 19 and injured over 200 others . In October , Haque mentioned that " no international link has been found to the recent spate of bomb blasts " , a claim that contradicted the government 's one-member judicial commission , which hinted at the link of a " foreign enemy " to the attack . In July 2011 , 30 people were added to the supplementary charge sheets of the grenade attack case which included Haque 's name . Later in December , Haque had appealed to a Dhaka court to discharge him from the cases but it was rejected . In March 2012 , Haque was charged for assisting the killers financially and administratively to execute the attack and faced up to life-term imprisonment . He was granted bail the next month . In October 2018 , Haque and another former IGP , Ashraful Huda , were sentenced to two years in jail and fined Tk 50,000 for harbouring the offenders
