DHAKA, June 7, 2026 (BSS)-A court here today set June 17 for the submission of the supplementary investigation report in the sensational Sharif Osman Hadi murder case.

The report was scheduled to be submitted before the court of Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (CMM) today. However, as the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) failed to file the report, additional chief metropolitan Magistrate Sefatullah fixed June 17 as the new date for submission.

According to the case details, unidentified assailants shot Osman Hadi, the spokesperson of the Inquilab Mancha, at about 2:20 pm on December 12 last year on Box Culvert Road in city’s Paltan area while he was returning after Friday prayers.

On December 14, Abdullah Al Jaber, member secretary of the Inquilab Mancha, filed a case with Paltan Police Station in this connection.

Although Osman Hadi was taken to Singapore for advanced medical treatment but succumbed to his injuries on December 18 while undergoing treatment.

Subsequently, on December 20, Metropolitan Magistrate Siddiq Azad ordered to add section 302 (murder) of the Penal Code to the case following a petition submitted by the Investigating Officer (IO).

Earlier, on January 6, the IO, Inspector Faisal Ahmed of the Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police, submitted a charge sheet against 17 accused to the CMM Court.

Being dissatisfied with the charge sheet filed by the DB, the complainant submitted an objection petition to the court on January 15. The court accepted the petition and ordered further investigation by the CID.

Among the 17 accused mentioned in the charge sheet 11 are currently in jail and  the remaining six are absconding.
