A court in Dhaka on Tuesday placed Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal (JSD) President and former information minister Hasanul Haq Inu on a seven-day remand in a case filed over the killing of businessman Abdul Wadud in the capital’s New Market area during the quota reform protest.

Metropolitan Magistrate Ali Hyder allowed the police to take Inu into their custody after the investigating officer sought 10 days to interrogate him in the case.

Inu was arrested from a house in Uttara on Monday.
