Faruk Bhuiyan, sub-inspector of Hazaribagh Police Station, pressed charges against him after the investigation. The court issued an order to begin trial in 2008.
Public Prosecutor Md Anwar Shahadat Shaon stood for the state while lawyer Kazi Salah Uddin Ahmed represented Mobarak during the hearing.
