Harkatul Jihad al Islami (Huji) leader Mufti Moin Sheikh alias Abu Zandal was shown arrested yesterday and was placed on a four-day remand in connection with the Communist Party of Bangladesh (CPB) bomb blast case.
The case was filed for bomb blasts at a CPB rally at Paltan Maidan on January 21, 2001 that killed five people and injured 50 others.
