Cops yet to find lead to AL leader's killing

Staff Correspondent
Police were yet to find a lead to the killing of Law Affairs Secretary of Dhaka City Awami League (AL) Advocate Khorshed Alam Bachchu on Tuesday.
"Our investigation centres on whether he (Khorshed) had enmity with any one in his personal or professional life or at his village home," Deputy Commissioner (DC) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Kahinoor Miah said yesterday.
He also said they are yet to talk to the members of the AL leader's bereaved family members. "We hope to find clues to the killing when we talk to the family members alongside the on going investigation," he said. The case was transferred to Detective Branch (DB) of police yesterday afternoon. "We were already conducting a shadow probe and found some clues to the murder but we cannot disclose that now," said DC of the DB Shohidul Islam.
Police sources also said the investigators are focusing on if any feuds over the formation of Kafrul thana unit committee of the AL led to the killing.
Khorshed headed a sevenmember committee tasked to form the committee.
Yesterday, police produced two youths arrested late Tuesday night from Tejgaon area on suspicion of their links to the killing before the Court of Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (CMM), Dhaka, seeking a seven-day remand.
The court placed the two -- Ismail Hossain alias Sujon and Mohammad Sohel- on remand as prayed.
In the remand prayer, Investigation Officer (IO) SubInspector Giasuddin said the arrestees are close associates of listed criminals of the area. They were found wandering in the locality just before the killing of Khorshed.
Referring to primary investigation, the IO claimed the arretees in connivance with others killed Advocate Khorshed in a planned way.
Meanwhile, Supreme Court lawyers observed a daylong abstention from work yesterday, protesting the killing of their fellow lawyer Khorshed.
Sammilita Ainjibi Samannaya Parishad held a protest rally on the Supreme Court premises.
Members of Dhaka Bar Association irrespective of their political affiliation protested Khorshed's killing for the second consecutive day yesterday.
Around 1,000 lawyers joined a mourning procession that paraded the premises of the District Judge's Court and the CMM's Court.
KHORSHED LAID TO REST
