A court on Friday granted an eight-day remand to interrogate former army officer Major General Ziaul Ahsan, in a shop employee murder case under New Market Police Station.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Arfatul Rakib passed the order after hearing the case and sent Ziaul Ahsan to police custody for interrogation, while lawyer of Ziaul Ahsan pleaded to cancel his remand and sought bail, reports BSS.
Earlier, police on Friday sought a 10-day remand to interrogate former director general of National Telecommunication Monitoring Centre (NTMC) and Ex-Major General Ziaul.
Ziaul was arrested from Dhaka’s Khilkhet on Thursday night August 15 in a case filed with New Market Police Station over the killing of Shahjahan Ali, 24, during quota reform protests on July 16.
Ayesha Begum, mother of the victim Shahjahan Ali, filed the murder case against some unnamed miscreants.
