A court of Dhaka on Monday placed on a five-day remand of Dr Mostofa Jalal Mohiuddin, former lawmaker of Dhaka-7 constituency and Awami League (AL) leader, in a case filed over the murder of trader Abdul Wadud in the capital's New market area during the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement.
Jashita Islam, Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate, granted the order after he was produced before the court with a 10-day remand plea.
