Rana remanded again

Sohel Rana, owner of the collapsed building in Savar, has been placed on a five-day fresh remand in a case filed for building code violation.

At least 1,127 people have died and hundreds sustained injuries after the nine-story Rana Plaza collapsed on April 24 near the capital.

On Monday, a court of Senior Judicial Magistrate in Dhaka granted the remand after the Detective Branch of Police produced Rana before the court.

Following the country's worst industrial disaster, Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakhya (Rajuk) filed the case accusing several people including Rana.

The building owner was arrested days after the incident and then placed on remand.
