Several hours after granting a five-day remand for detained former state minister for home affairs Lutfozzaman Babar in the August 21 grenade attack case, a Dhaka court on Wednesday stayed its order till November 1 and instructed to question him at the jail gate.

 

First Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Ehsanul Haque at around 1:00am in the day passed the remand order following a 10-day remand prayer filed by the investigation officer (IO) of the case.

The same court at around 6:00pm stayed the order after Babar's lawyer submitted a petition stating that the High Court directed the authorities concerned to interrogate Babar at jail gate in this case if necessary.
