Chattogram:A Chattogram court has granted a seven-day remand for Mobarak Hossain Emon, also known as "David Emon," a notorious criminal in the city, in connection with two significant murder cases.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, the remand includes five days for a double-murder case under Bakalia Police Station and two days for the murder of Sarwar Babla, a case under Bayezid Bostami Police Station. The orders were issued separately by Chattogram Metropolitan Magistrates S M Alauddin Mahmud and Md. Alamgir Hossain.
Mohammad Hasan Iqbal Chowdhury, deputy commissioner (Prosecution) of the Chattogram Metropolitan Police (CMP), informed that Emon was presented before the court on Wednesday afternoon for the remand hearing.
