The ACC or whoever should raid Daily Star office and permanently ban it to find out how much money they pour into DS's coffers to be BAL's mouth piece. Rather than having a 3 page article which Tareq's arrest made including Mahfuz Anam's special history lesson of Tareq's corruption history, this article rather swiftly moved on to some Jamaat MP's surrender.
Why are you so concerned about Daily Star's neutrality. Most of the national dailies are biased too. Tareq took corruption to a new level, so there should be numerous articles on that. And don't worry about how much column space Obaidul's arrest got, cause these corrupt people won't be spared even if their arrest got little media coverage.

Your thinking that BAL poured money into DS to influence their reporting doesn't make sense. If money was needed to influence DS then Tareq has it more than anybody else in Bangladesh. There is more to it than money.
