Star Report
Nur Hossain has admitted to Kolkata police his involvement in the abduction and gruesome murder of seven people in Narayanganj, reports EkattorTV in Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, the foreign ministry' has initiated the "process" of bringing Nur Hossain back through the Indian High Commission in Dhaka.
Police arrested the prime accused in the sevenmurder and his two associates on Saturday night in
Kolkata and a court placed the trio on an eight-day remand each the next day.
An EkattorTV report claimed that Hossain had initially denied to the taskforce set up to quiz him in Kolkata that he had anything to do with the murders. He claimed that he was being accused of the murders because he was a politician.

However, he later confessed to his involvement and spoke of six associates hiding in India. The six were involved in the abductions and killings, he said.
The IV channel, quoting unofficial sources, reported that Bidhan Nagar police on Sunday raided several places in West Bengal, based on Hossain's information, to arrest the six. Their attempts were in vain.
The process to bring Hossain back to Bangladesh has begun following the home ministry's request to the foreign ministry to take steps, State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam told the BBC Bangla Service yesterday.
The home ministry move came a day after State Minister for Home Affairs Asaduzzaman Khan told reporters that the government had started the process.
Hossain could be the first to be deported since the signing of the extradition treaty between India and Bangladesh in 2013, according to sources at the home ministry.
Narayanganj Superintendent of Police Khandaker Mahid Uddin said police had also initiated communication with Indian police through Interpol to have Hossain in their custody.
Abida Islam, Bangladesh Deputy High Commissioner in Kolkata, told The Daily Star over the phone yesterday that the West Bengal government had still not officially informed the mission about the arrest. She said the mission, once notified, would inform the government of the matter.
Nur Hossain stands accused of the gruesome abduction and killing of seven people, including Narayanganj city panel mayor
Nazrul Islam and senior lawyer Chandan Sarkar.
The seven were abducted on April 27 in the city and six bodies were seen floating in the Shitalakkhya river on April 30. The seventh surfaced the next day.
Hossain, councillor of ward-4 and a close aide to Narayanganj-4 Awami League lawmaker Shamim Osman, fied the country when law enforcers went looking for him in connection with the murders.
Nazrul's father-in-law Shahidul Islam said Hossain and some others had bribed some Rab-11 officials Tk 6 crore to have Nazrul killed.
Following the allegation, three top officials at Rab-11 - Lt Col Tareque Sayeed Mohammad, Maj Arif Hossain and Lt Commander MM Rana - were fired. They are now behind bars and facing investigation.
