Fresh date again for report on further investigation

Sylhet Divisional Speedy Trial Tribunal yesterday again fixed May 17 for submission of report on further investigation into former finance minister SAMS Kibria murder case.
Judge Md Mahbub-ul-Islam fixed the date following a petition submitted to the court by Special Public Prosecutor Kishore Kumar Kar, seeking time extension, court sources said.
Though the tribunal ordered further investigation into the case on a prayer of the then investigation officer (IO) Munshi Atiqur Rahman, senior ASP of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), on March 7, 2007, the CID failed to submit the report in the last three years.
Kibria, his nephew advocate Shah Manzurul Huda, local AL leaders Abdur Rahim, Abul Hossain and Siddique Ali were killed in a grenade attack on a rally at Baidderbazar under Habiganj Sadar upazila on the night of January 27, 2005.
Huji operative Mizanur Rahman Mithu, who arrested by Rab personnel on March 8 this year in connection with Kibria murder case, gave confessional statement before the Judicial Magistrate's Court in Habiganj the following day.
The CID also took former state minister for home Luthfozzaman Babar on Remand in connection with the case last week.
Contacted, CID ASP Rafiqul Islam, also the investigation officer (IO) of the case, said 'furher investigation' into the case is going on and they need some more time to submit the supplementary charge.
