Sagar-Runi Murder: Probe report delayed for the 70th time
A Dhaka court yesterday again asked Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) to submit by February 10 the probe report of a case filed over the murders of journalist couple Sagar Sarowar and Meherun Runi.
With yesterday’s date, the investigation officer has so far taken 70 dates to complete the investigation.
Metropolitan Magistrate Debbrata Biswas passed the order after Khondker Shafiqul Alam, and investigation officer of the case, failed to submit the report yesterday.
Earlier on November 11, the High Court expressed disappointment at the lack of significant progress in the investigation into the sensational Sagar-Runi murder case.
Sagar -- news editor at private TV channel Maasranga -- and Runi -- a senior reporter at ATN Bangla -- were killed om February 11, 2012 at their flat in the capital.
After investigation by Sher-e-Bangla Nagar police, Rab started probing into the murder on April 18, 2012.
