Police granted 2 days to grill Jubo Dal secretary Munna

A court in Dhaka has granted police two days to interrogate Jubo Dal general secretary Abdul Monayem Munna in a case filed for alleged subversive acts.

Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate of Dhaka Tofazzal Hossain gave the order after police had presented him before the court, praying for a seven-day remand.

His lawyer Mohiuddin Chowdhury confirmed the matter.
