A court on Tuesday placed former agriculture minister and Awami League (AL) presidium member Abdur Razzaque on two-day remand in a case lodged over the killing of trader Abdul Wadud in the capital's New Market area.
Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Mahbubul Haque passed the order as police produced Razzaque before the court and pleaded to place him on seven-day remand in the case, reports BSS.
Abdur Razzaque was arrested from the capital's Eskaton area around 7:30pm on October 14.
