A Bangladeshi journalist, Athar Siddiqui Khasru, who was missing for three week, has been found near the port city of Chittagong. Police said Mr Khusru was found by a roadside with his hands and legs tied with chains.
A BBC correspondent in Dhaka says Mr Khasru blames a local leader of the ruling Bangladesh Nationalist Party for his abduction.
But the politician has denied the allegation.
