Following the prayer, Judge of Chittagong Metropolitan Judicial Magistrate Osman Gani fixed today for the remand hearing.
IO Mohammad Monir-uzzaman, also an ASP of CID, made the prayer for remand against accused Hafizur Rahman and Din Mohammad in the smuggling case.
Earlier, the five-day remand granted against the accused in the arms case ended on Monday.

Sources said out of the 43 accused in both the cases, only Hafiz and Din were behind the bars, while 33 were on bail and eight were absconding.
