After walking out of the jail, Prothom Alo's Senior Reporter Rozina Islam has expressed her firm determination to keep working as journalist.
Hours after securing bail, she was released from Kashimpur Central Jail at 4:15pm today.
"I will be in the journalism certainly," Rozina replied when journalists asked whether she will continue journalism after the incident.
She also thanks fellow journalists and civil society members who were vocal for her release.
Earlier in the day, a Dhaka court granted her bail on a bond of Tk5,000 and has also asked to submit her passport in a case filed by Health Ministry official under the Official Secrets Act 1923.
