A Dhaka court has set October 15 to submit a probe report in a case filed against ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina and 6 others over the murder of grocer Abu Saiyed on July 19 in the city's Mohammadpur area during the anti-discrimination student movement.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Zaki-Al-Farabi set the date as the investigating officer of the case couldn't submit the report on Sunday, reports BSS.

Amir Hamza Shatil, a resident of Mohammadpur, pleaded to file a murder case with the court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Rajesh Chowdhury against Sheikh Hasina and others on August 13.

This was the first murder case filed against Sheikh Hasina, after she resigned and fled the country on August 5.

The other accused are: Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader, former home minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, former inspector general of police (IGP) Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun, former DB chief Harun-Ur- Rashid, former DMP commissioner Habibur Rahman and former DMP joint commissioner Biplob Kumar Sarker.
