A Dhaka court on Wednesday sent Amatullah Bushra to jail in a case lodged over the murder of his friend and Buet student Fardin Noor Parash, 24.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Ataullah passed the order as police produced Bushra before the court after the end of her five-day remand in the case and investigation officer and detective branch (DB) inspector Mojibur Rahman pleaded to keep her behind the bars till the end of probe.
Bushra's lawyer however, argued for her bail. After hearing both the sides, the court sent her to jail.
Police on November 10 arrested Bushra from her Rampura flat and produced her before the court, pleading to place her on seven-day remand. Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Mehedi Hasan had placed her on five-day remand on that day.
Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) student Fardin went missing on November 5 and his body was found in the Shitalakshya River on November 7. His autopsy report suggested Fardin was murdered as there were injuries on the body.
