Singer Momtaz put on 4-day remand
 
  Bangla Press Desk: A Dhaka court on Tuesday put singer-cum-lawmaker Momtaz on a four-day remand in a murder case related to last year’s anti-fascist mass upsurge. Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Jewel Rana granted the remand after Mirpur Model Police Station Sub-inspector Manirul Islam sought a seven-day remand order. Dhaka Metropolitan Police Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Talebur Rahman confirmed the development. Earlier, at 11.45pm Monday, law enforcers arrested Momtaz from the capital’s Dhanmondi area.
According to the case statement, on 19 July last year, Md Sagar was gunned down by state-backed assailants while taking part in the movement against the erstwhile disproportionate job quota system. Later, on 27 November, following the overthrow of the fascist Awami League regime, Sagar’s mother filed a murder case against 243 individuals, including former prime minister Sheikh Hasina and Momtaz.
