A Metropolitan Magistrate on Wednesday granted a two-day fresh remand for former Law Minister Anisul Huq, Prime Minister’s Adviser Salman F Rahman and Awami League leader Nuru Mia in connection with the killing of a youth during the July uprising.
Metropolitan Magistrate Mehera Mahbub issued the order after holding a hearing.
Earlier this morning, Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) Inspector Muhammad Kamruzzaman Sikder, the case’s investigating officer, sought five-day remand for each of the accused.
Public Prosecutor Omar Faruk Faruki represented the state during the hearing.
All four suspects, Anisul Huq, Salman F Rahman, Nuru Mia and Sohanur Rahman Azad were produced in court. Sohanur’s lawyer, Zaherul Islam, applied for bail, while the others’ lawyers requested cancellation of the remand but did not argue.
The court granted remand for Anisul, Salman, and Nuru, while deferring a decision on Sohanur’s remand.
According to case details, on August 4, 23-year-old Md Riaz sustained gunshot injuries near Science Lab in Dhanmondi during clashes and died on August 17 after two weeks in hospital. His mother, Mosammat Shafia Begum, filed a murder case with Dhanmondi Police on September 9.
