A Dhaka court has once again deferred the submission of the investigation report in the murder case of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (Buet) student Tariquzzaman Sunny, marking the 42nd postponement of the investigation report.
Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Mahbubur Rahman passed the order today (3 August) and fixed 6 September as the next date for submission, confirmed ASI Munia Akter of the prosecution department.
The case was scheduled for submission of the investigation report today. However, the investigating officer, SI Mashiur Rahman of the Kutubpur River Police Outpost, failed to submit the report on the scheduled date.
