UNB, Sylhet :
A court here on Friday sent Kamrul Islam, the prime accused in the teenage boy Rajon murder case who was brought back home from Saudi Arabia on Thursday, to jail.
Sylhet Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court-2 Judge Anwarul Haque passed the order when police produced him before the court around 11:30 am.
Earlier, fugitive accused Kamrul was brought to Dhaka from Saudi Arabia on Thursday and taken to the Sylhet Metropolitan Police office at Naiorpool around 10 pm.
The police team, led by additional superintendent of police Mahbubul Karim, had left Dhaka for Saudi Arabia on Monday for bringing the accused back.
The National Central Bureau (NCB) of the Police Headquarters on July 21 issued a red notice against absconding Kamrul through the Interpol after officially being sure that he was arrested in Riyadh.
On July 8, 13-year-old boy Sheikh Samiul Alam Rajon, son of Sheikh Azizur Rahman of Badeali village in Sadar upazila of Sylhet, was brutally tortured to death over a theft at Sundar Ali Market in Kumargaon area of the Sylhet city.
The killers themselves took video footage of the incident, which went viral on social networking site Facebook and video-sharing site Youtube, triggering a widespread outcry.
Ten people were arrested in connection with the gruesome murder and eight of them made ‘confession’ separately to their involvement in the incident.
Later, the investigation officer of the case submitted a chargesheet accusing 13 people, including absconding Kamrul, on August 16 before court in Sylhet.
