Jabal-e-Noor driver denied bail
A Dhaka court yesterday rejected the bail petition of a bus driver of Jabal-e-Noor Paribahan in a case over the death of two college students in a road accident on Airport Road on July 29.
The accused driver is Mohammad Zubayer.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Mazharul Haque passed the order when Zubayer's lawyer Md Raiyan Islam submitted a bail petition.
Earlier on July 30, members of Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) arrested two drivers and two helpers of the bus service from different parts of the capital in connection with the accident.
Diya Khanam Mim and Abdul Karim Rajib, college students of Shaheed Ramiz Uddin Cantonment School and College, were killed as a bus ploughed through a group of students in front of Kurmitola General Hospital on Airport Road, an incident which sparked massive student protests across the country demanding safe roads.
A case was filed over the accident on July 29.
