Blogger murders accused dies at DMCH
An accused of the murders of two bloggers died at Dhaka Medical College Hospital under jail custody yesterday, jail sources said.
Abul Bashar, 40, who was suffering from Hepatitis B, had been at DMCH since December 3, said Jahangir Kabir, senior jail superintendent of Dhaka Central Jail.
His body was handed over to the family after autopsy, Jahangir said.
Bashar was arrested in the capital's Fakira Pool in September 2015 on the charge of killing Avijit Roy and Ananta Bijoy Das.
Bashar took over the charge of banned militant outfit Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT) after arrest of its chief Jasimuddin Rahmani and allegedly plotted murders of the two.
