The accused sent on remand are—Sayed Hossain Shimul alias Aiyush, Md Tuhin Biswas, Md Rabbi Kazi, Suman alias Pakhir Pola Suman, Md Rana and Rasel alias Pichchi Rasel.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Monirul Islam passed the order after a hearing, following a remand petition by the investigation officer of the case, Sub-Inspector Sadhan Kumar Mondal of Mohammadpur Police Station.
Earlier, the court ordered that the accused be shown arrested on 13 and 14 April. The court had set Thursday for the remand hearing and granted a four-day remand for each of them.
