Professor Mir Mahbubul Alam, head of surgery department of Osmani hospital, heads the probe body, which also includes Prof Partho Sarathi Shome, head of orthopaedics department, Prof Sadar Hossain, head of neurosurgery department, and Dr Helal Uddin Ahmed, head of anaesthesia department.
However, Dr Helal requested Brigadier General Ismail Hossain, director of the hospital, to drop him from the probe committee citing personal reasons, sources said.
Ismail told The Daily Star yesterday afternoon that the revised three-member probe body was asked to submit a report at its earliest.
Ibrahim, wounded in the car bomb explosion near the Gulshan Centre, died the next day at the hospital. After his death, his family claimed the AL leader died from improper treatment.
The three-day remand of AL leader SM Nunu Miah, arrested in connection with the blast incident, ends today.
The killing of Ibrahim came after twin blasts at cinema halls killed a street boy on August 5, underlining security concern in the northeastern city.
The government yesterday tasked the Criminal Investigation Department with investigation into the three incidents.
Sylhet police would produce Nunu before the Court of Sylhet Sadar Magistrate this morning and might seek a fresh remand prayer, said a police official preferring anonymity.
Officials of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence and National Security Intelligence on Tuesday afternoon quizzed the physicians, who treated Ibrahim.
Leaders of Balaganj and Osmani Nagar units of the ruling BNP at a press conference refuted the allegations of Nunu's wife Nasima Nunu and AL leader Shah Azizur Rahman on Tuesday saying BNP lawmaker Ilias Ali had no hand in the bomb blast.
Protesting the blast, the local arm
of the main opposition brought a mourning procession in the city. Badar Uddin Ahmed Kamran, Sylhet mayor and Sylhet city AL president, Abdus Shahid, chief whip of the opposition, addressed a brief rally at Shaheed Minar.
AL chief Sheikh Hasina is expected to reach Sylhet today and is scheduled to visit the AL leaders at Osmani hospital, who were injured in the blast.
