Narayanganj 7-murder: HC order on further probe Dec 9

The High Court has set December 9 for passing an order on a revision petition seeking further investigation into the murder of seven people in Narayanganj.

A division bench of the court set the date after the conclusion of the hearing on a petition filed by Selina Islam Beauty, wife of Narayanganj panel mayor Nazrul Islam who was among the deceased.

Justice M Enayetur Rahim and Justice Md Amir Hossain in the hearing said there is a mention of criminal conspiracy of killing in the charge sheet, but there is no detail description of the conspiracy.

Earlier on December 1, the same court said there is a serious defect in the charge sheet.

The court observed that the culprits behind the seven-murder may be benefited if the trial proceedings of the case are delayed for a long period.

Selina Islam, wife of Narayanganj city panel mayor Nazrul Islam, who was among the seven victims abducted and killed in April last year, recently submitted the petition, saying that five local people's names were included in the first information report (FIR) but were dropped from the charge sheet.

The five are Yasin Miah, Aminul Haque, Hasmat Ali, Iqbal Hossain and Anwar Hossain.
