David Emon placed on 7-day remand in two murder cases in Chattogram

Top criminal Mobarak Hossain Emon, alias David Emon, has been placed on a seven-day remand by court in two sensational murder cases in Chattogram. On Wednesday, the courts of Chattogram Metropolitan Magistrates SM Alauddin Mahmud and Md. Alamgir Hossain passed the order following separate hearings.

Among them, a five-day remand was granted in a double murder case filed at Bakalia Police Station, and a two-day remand in the Sarowar Babla murder case at Bayazid Bostami Police Station. Mohammad Hasan Iqbal Chowdhury, Deputy Commissioner (Prosecution) of CMP, confirmed the matter.

On the night of March 30 last year, Bakhtiar Hossain Manik and Abdullah Al Rifat were shot dead in the Bakalia Access Road area, while Sarowar Hossain Babla was shot and killed during an election campaign of a BNP candidate in Bayazid Bostami. David Emon was accused in these cases.
