Bangla Press Desk: A court in Dhaka on Wednesday sent three people to jail in a case filed over the killing of Shahriar Alam Samya, a Dhaka University student and a leader of the Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Jamshed Alam passed the order when the police produced the trio – Md Tamim Hawlader, 30, Palash Sardar, 30, and Samrat Mallik, 28 – before the court.
Shahbagh police station Sub-Inspector Toufiq Hasan, also the investigating officer of the case, submitted a petition seeking the court’s order to send the individuals to jail, while there was no defence counsel to argue for the accused.
After a hearing, the court ordered the authorities concerned to send them to jail.
A group of miscreants stabbed Samya in the Suhrawardy Udyan area in the early hours of Wednesday. Later, he was rushed to Dhaka Medical College and Hospital where the on-duty physicians declared him dead.
Samya was a student of the 2018–19 session at the Institute of Education and Research, and literary and publication secretary of the Chhatra Dal’s AF Rahman Hall unit.
Shariful Islam, elder brother of the deceased, filed a murder case with Shahbagh police station on Wednesday morning, accusing 10 to 12 unidentified people. Source: DS
