RAJSHAHI: A district court Tuesday placed Ashrafuzzaman, vice president of BCL Rajshahi University unit, on 2-day remand for police interrogation.
The Judge of Chief Metropolitan Judge Court granted the remand when police produced him before the court with 3-day remand plea.
Officer-in-Charge of Motihar Thana Anisur Rahman said, “Ashrafuzzaman was held from Kajla area for his alleged involvement in Sohel killing.”
Other accused persons will also be held soon, he added.
Earlier on Monday, two BCL factions exchanged fire at Rajshahi University over establishing supremacy on the campus, leaving two BCL activists Sohel and Imran injured.
At least 15 rounds of bullets were exchanged during the gunfight between the supporters of RU Chhatra League President Ahmed Ali and General Secretary Abu Hossain Bipu at Madar Baksh Hall at about 12:15am on the day.
The bullet wounded BCL leader Abdullah-Al-Hasan Sohel was shifted to Dhaka Medical College Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries on Monday noon.
The varsity authorities have formed a five-member probe committee over Sohel killing.
