DHAKA, July 28, 2026 (BSS) - A court here today sent Satkhira thana Awami 
League (AL) general secretary Md Nazrul Islam to jail in a case lodged over 
the murder of Daffodil International University student Ramij Uddin in 
Karwanbazar area during the 2024 July Mass Uprising.
 
Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Awlad Hossain Zunayed passed 
the order as police produced Nazrul before the court and pleaded to place him 
on a seven-day remand in the case. The court also set tomorrow to hold a 
hearing on the remand plea.
 
According to the case documents, on July 24, 2024, Ramij Uddin, 21, a
