The order was issued around 11:30 a.m., and the court directed that the three accused be produced again on June 7, the date set for submission of the investigation report.
Earlier in the morning, the three were presented before the tribunal.

With their inclusion, the total number of detained accused in this case has risen to nine, including former state minister Shamsul Haque Tuku, former IGP Shahidul Haque, and ex-army officer Ziaul Ahsan.
