The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of police today said it has ended its investigation for submitting charge sheet in a case filed in connection with the explosion at a Narayanganj mosque, which left 34 people dead.

"We want to submit the charge sheet before court within a week. As there are some accused who are government officials, we need to take permission from the government before submitting the charge sheet. We will submit the charge sheet soon after getting the permission," said Nasir Uddin Ahmmed, special superintendent of police (CID) in Narayanganj.

The CID SP was speaking at a press briefing held at the SP office in the district this noon, reports our Narayanganj correspondent.

The CID last night arrested Abdul Gafur (55), the president of Baitus Salat Jame Mosque in Pashchim Talla of Narayanganj Sadar upazila, in the case.

Today, CID SP Nasir Uddin said they prayed for a two-day remand to the Narayanganj court for Gafur.

The explosion happened at the mosque around 8:45pm during Esha prayers on September 4.
