KOLKATA: A Barasat court in North 24 Parganas of West Bengal on Saturday placed Nur Hossain, the prime accused of Narayanganj seven murders case, on a 14-day fresh remand for police interrogation.

Moreover, Magistrate Madhumita Roy asked the authorities concerned to produce Nur Hossain before the court on August 16.

Earlier, no bail petition on behalf of Nur Hossain was submitted to the session judge court.

However, the court will also hear petitions of Nur Hossain's two accomplices--Ohidur Rahman and Khan Sumon--on that day.

On June 14, the Kolkata police arrested Nur Hossain and two of his aides from a multi-storey apartment complex near Damdam Airport.

On the following day, they were produced before the Barast court and the court granted eight-day remand for each.

After remand, they were produced before the court on June 23 again.

At that time Chief Judicial Magistrate Modhumita Roy ordered to send them to 14 days of jail custody at Damdam Central Jail.

Narayanganj City Corporation panel mayor Nazrul Islam’s wife filed an abduction case against Nur on April 28 following abduction of Nazrul and six others on the previous day.

Later, their bodies were recovered from Shitalaykha river on April 30.
