Former Supreme Court Justice AHM Shamsuddin Chowdhury Manik has been shown arrested in six separate cases lodged over murders during the recent Quota Reform Movement.
The cases were filed with Adabor, Lalbagh and Badda Police Stations.
Earlier on Wednesday morning, Manik was produced before the court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Zaki Al Farabi for hearing.
Magistrate Farabi granted the applications for showing Manik arrested in the six murder cases after holding the hearing.
Manik was shown arrested in Adabor case over the murder of garment
worker Rubel, at Lalbagh case over the death of college student Khalid Hasan
Saifullah; and at Badda case over the killing of Sumon Sikder, Hafizul
Sikder, Taufiqul Islam Bhuiyan and Sohag Miah.
During the hearing, Manik said to the court that he was innocent and the charges brought against him were false and fabricated.
On Tuesday, Sylhet Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Anjan Kanti Das granted bail to Manik in a case filed with Kanaighat Police Station over his attempt to enter India illegally.
Border Guard Bangladesh arrested Manik on August 23 when he was fleeing to India through the Dhana border in Kanaighat upazila.
The following day, Sylhet Metropolitan Magistrate Alamgir Hossain showed Manik arrested under Section 54 of Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) and sent him to jail.
