The police team, led by additional superintendent of police Mahbubul Karim, left Dhaka for Saudi Arabia on Monday for bringing back the accused. Sources at the Police Headquarters said as there is no ‘repatriation of prisoners’ agreement with Saudi Arabia, absconding accused Kamrul will be brought back through Interpol.
