Hadi murder: Two accused sent to jail after confessional statements
The accused Sanjay Chisim and Md Faisal made their confessions before Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Jamshed Alam. After recording their statements, the court ordered that they be sent to jail, according to court sources.
A Dhaka court today (1 January) sent two accused to jail, in the murder case of Inqilab Mancha spokesperson Sharif Osman bin Hadi, after they gave confessional statements.
The accused Sanjay Chisim and Md Faisal made their confessions before Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Jamshed Alam. After recording their statements, the court ordered that they be sent to jail, according to court sources.
Earlier in the day, police produced the accused before the court.
As they expressed willingness to give voluntary confessional statements, the investigating officer of the case, Inspector Faisal Ahmed of the Motijheel zonal team of the Detective Branch (DB), submitted an application seeking permission to record the confessions.
Following the application, the court recorded their statements and issued the jail order. However, the specific details of what the accused disclosed in court were not immediately known.
According to the case statement, on 12 December last year, at around 2:20pm, miscreants riding a motorcycle shot Hadi in Paltan's Box Culvert Road area before fleeing the scene. He sustained critical injuries after being shot in the head and below his right ear.
Hadi was initially taken to Dhaka Medical College Hospital and later shifted to Evercare Hospital. As his condition deteriorated, he was flown to Singapore by air ambulance on 15 December for advanced treatment. He died while undergoing treatment on 18 December.
Following the incident, Abdullah Al Jaber, member secretary of Inqilab Mancha, filed an attempted murder case with Paltan Police Station on 14 December. After Hadi's death, the case was converted into a murder case.
So far, 10 people have been arrested in connection with the case.
