CID gets 3 months more for Aug 21 probe

March 4, 2010

The Criminal Investigation Department on Thursday got three more months to submit the probe report in one of the two August 21 grenade attack cases.

ANM Bashir Ullah of the Metropolitan Sessions Judge’s Court Dhaka allowed the time after the investigation officer (IO) sought four more months to submit the report in the case filed under the Explosive Substances Act.

IO Abdul Kahar Akond pleaded for the time on Thursday saying he could not complete the investigation in due time.

Earlier on January 5 this year, the Metropolitan Sessions Judge’s Court gave CID two more months to submit the probe report.

Twenty-three Awami League leaders and workers were killed and over 300 maimed in the incident.

AL President Sheikh Hasina narrowly escaped the attack.

Another case in connection with the August 21 grenade attack remained pending with another court.
