A Dhaka court has placed the chairman of Regent Group and Regent Hospital Md Sahed alias Sahed Karim on a 6-day remand in a fraud case filed with Pallabi Police Station.  

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Masudur Rahman on Wednesday passed the order after the investigation officer of the case produced him before the court with 10-day remand prayer.
