DHAKA, June 10, 2026 (BSS) - A Dhaka court today placed two people on a four-
day remand each in a case filed over the murder of Swechchhasebak Dal leader 
Billal Hossain.

The accused on remand are Riajul Hasan and Al Amin Mahin.

Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Md Zakir Hossain passed the 
order as police produced the duo before the court seeking a 10-day remand for 
each. 

The court, however, granted four days of remand each.

Earlier, the court accepted the First Information Report (FIR) and set July 9 
for submission of the investigation report.

According to the case documents, Billal Hossain used to run a business at 
Arafat Market in the Ramna area and had a longstanding dispute with some 
individuals, including Didarul Islam Babu.

On the evening of June 8, Babu allegedly called Billal to the rear of the 
market, where he and his associates assaulted and stabbed him 
indiscriminately.

The attackers left the scene, leaving Billal critically injured. Locals later 
rushed him to Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH), where he was 
declared dead around 9:45 pm.

Billal's wife, Asia Khatun, filed the case on June 9 with Ramna Police 
Station against 21 named individuals, including Didarul Islam Babu, and 7-8 
unidentified others.
