A Dhaka court has ordered a three-day remand for retired Lieutenant General Sheikh Mamun Khaled, former Director General of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI), in connection with the murder of BNP activist Mokbul Hossain. The order was issued on Thursday, April 9, 2026, by Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Awlad Hossain Muhammad Junaid after a hearing. The prosecution confirmed the decision following a police request for further interrogation.
Police presented Mamun Khaled before the court after completing a previous 14-day remand and sought a new seven-day remand, citing the need for detailed questioning. The remand petition alleged that Khaled had politically supported the previous government in suppressing opposition activities and played a significant role behind the incident. Defense lawyers sought bail and cancellation of the remand, which the court denied.
According to the case, BNP announced a one-point movement on December 10, 2022, demanding the fall of the then government. During clashes near the BNP’s Nayapaltan office, activist Mokbul Hossain was shot dead. The case was filed on September 30 against 256 individuals, including Sheikh Hasina.
