A court on Wednesday placed former agriculture minister Md Abdus Shahid on four-day remand in a case lodged over the murder of bus driver Alamgir Hossain during the student-led mass uprising.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Sharifur Rahman passed the order as police produced Shahid before the court and pleaded to place him on 10-day remand in the case filed with the Uttara West Police Station.

The former agriculture minister was arrested from Uttara in the early hours of Wednesday.

Alamgir Hossain, 34, a driver of Raida Paribahan, was gunned down in Uttara Azampur area on August 5. His mother Aleya Begum filed the case on October 6, against 288 people including ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina.
