Staff Reporter :
A Dhaka court has sent Gulshan attack suspect Tahmid Hasib to jail after rejecting his bail prayer.
Metropolitan Magistrate Delwar Hossain on Saturday passed the order when Sub-Inspector of Counter Terrorism and
Transnational Crime (CTTC) unit and also investigation officer Humayun Kabir produced Tahmid before the court with a plea to send him in the jail until the investigation of Gulshan Cafe attack case is finished.
Canadian university student Tahmid Hasib, who was arrested Under Section 54 on suspicion of having links with the Gulshan attackers, was sent to jail after completion of his 14-day remand in two phases.
On August 3, police said that both of them had been arrested Under CrPC Section 54 in relation to the Holey Artisan attack. Later, eight-day remands had been granted for both.
On July 1, the Holey Artisan Bakery in Gulshan was taken over by militants. After a night-long hostage situation, military commandos stormed the bakery on July 2, rescuing 13 people. 20 people, including foreign nationals were killed in the militant attack.
