A court on Thursday placed Foysal Ali and Mostafizur Rahman on six-day remand each in a case lodged over the abduction and murder of Awami League lawmaker of Jhenaidah-4 Anwarul Azim Anar in Kolkata, India.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Ataullah passed the order as police produced the duo before the court and pleaded to place them on a 10-day remand, reports BSS.

A special team of Detective Branch of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) detained the two from Khagrachari, where they were hiding, posing as devotees at a remote Kali Temple for the last couple of days.

The victim's daughter Mumtarin Ferdous Dorin filed the case on May 22 with the capital's Sher-e-Bangla Nagar Police Station.

Anwarul, a three-time MP and president of Jhenaidah's Kaliganj upazila unit Awami League went to India on May 12 on a personal visit to receive treatment. He went missing on May 13 after leaving the flat in Kolkata's Borah Nagar area.

According to the Kolkata police sources, Anwarul was taken to a flat in New Town in Kolkata, where he was believed to be strangled to death and his body was cut into pieces.
