Mizanur Rahman, the main defendant in the murder case of schoolgirl Neela Roy in Savar, and his two accomplices Shakib (21) and Joy (20) have been sent to court for a seven-day pre-trial detention. After the formalities, the defendants were sent to the Dhaka Chief Judicial Magistrate’s court on Saturday morning seeking pretrial detention.
Meanwhile, Mizan’s father, Abdur Rahman, and mother, Nazmun Nahar Siddiqui, are in police custody for two days. Investigative officer Savar Model Police Station Inspector (Investigation) Saiful Islam said they also obtained important information from them during interrogation in pre-trial detention.
Police arrested Mizanur Rahman in a raid near Colonel Bricks Field in Rajfulbaria of the Savar Tentuljhora Union at around 10:30 pm on Friday.
Police also confiscated a knife used in the murder of two of Mizan’s associates, Shakib and Joy, as evidence. The two arrested were later shown. Dhaka (SP) District Police Superintendent Maruf Hossain Sardar confirmed the arrest of Mizanur Rahman.
So far, six people, including Mizan and her parents, have been arrested in connection with Neela’s murder.
Earlier, the court sent Mizan’s parents two days. Dhaka’s Senior Judicial Magistrate Fairuz Tasneem approved the order yesterday. The court prosecutor (PP) Anwarul Kabir Babul confirmed the matter to NTV Online.
Mizan’s father, Abdur Rahman, and his wife lived in the Bank Colony area of Savar. However, after Neela’s murder, the principal charged Mizanur Rahman and they also went into hiding.
Anwarul Kabir Babul told the Dhaka Judicial Court of First Instance this afternoon that the investigating officer in the case and the Deputy Inspector (SI) of the Savar Police Station, Nirmal Chandra Ghosh, requested his seven-day pre-trial detention. On the other hand, his lawyer requested bail on behalf of the accused. At the end of the hearing, the judge rejected the bail request and ordered preventive detention for two days each.
RAB-4 Additional Police Superintendent Jamir Uddin Ahmed said Abdur Rahman and Nazmun Nahar Siddiqui were arrested at Charigram in Singair upazila of Manikganj on Thursday night with the help of information technology.
Earlier on Wednesday, a man named Selim Paloyan, an associate of Mizanur Rahman, was arrested in Aricha in Manikganj. He is a resident of the Palpara area of the municipality of Savar.
Meanwhile, Salahuddin Khan Naeem, secretary general of the Savar Anti-Corruption Committee, which has joined 23 organizations demanding the arrest of Mizanur Rahman, said: “Our movement will continue to protest the killings.” “We celebrate the role of the police in arresting the main defendants,” he said. It will certainly bring some relief to the grieving family. However, our movement will continue to demand a speedy trial for the murders.
On the night of September 20, while on her way to the hospital, Bakhate Mizanur Rahman Chowdhury stabbed Neela Roy (14), a 10th-class student at the local Aced School, to death in front of her brother.
