Sylhet cops to seek time for charge sheet in 5 cases
Staff Correspondent, Sylhet
Police have submitted five charge sheets in connection with the August 17 blasts, but failed to complete investigations into five cases within the deadline fixed by authorities.Investigators will seek today a one-week extension to submit charge sheets in the remaining cases. Syed Shah Zaman Raj, deputy inspector general of police (Sylhet), however, said progress in the investigations into the blasts is much better in Sylhet than in other districts. The police are yet to arrest Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) men Delwar and Murad, but have gathered sufficient evidence about their involvement in the blasts. He said they suspect Delwar and Shamim, a former leader of Islami Chhatra Shibir arrested in Habiganj, are the key persons behind the blasts in the region. Sylhet police have made several attempts to arrest Delwar and also alerted Muktagachha Police Station from where the militant hailed.
