Case under Anti-Terrorism Act, Dr Wali on fresh remand
Remand
A Dhaka court on Tuesday placed Doctor Shakir Bin Wali on two-day fresh remand in a case lodged under Anti-Terrorism Act with capital's Rampura Police Station.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Ahmed Mehedi Hasan passed the order as police produced Dr Shakir before the court after the end of his four-day remand in the
case and pleaded to place him on 10-day fresh remand. The defense however, pleaded to scrap the remand plea and argued for his bail.
Metropolitan Magistrate Ahmed Humayun Kabir of Dhaka CMM Court on September 14 placed Dr Shakir and his alleged accomplice Abrarul Haque on
four-day remand after police produced the duo in the court and Investigation Officer and Inspector of Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) unit
SM Mizanur Rahman pleaded to place them on a 10-day remand each.
Accused Abrarul Haque on September 19 gave confessional statement in the case.
CTTC arrested the duo recently for allegedly instigating youths, including the seven in Cumilla who have recently went missing after leaving their homes in the
name of performing "hijrat", to join militancy.
They were allegedly collecting members for banned militant outfit Ansar al-Islam, arranging military training for them, and helping them to perform hijrat. - Special Correspondent
