A Dhaka court yesterday placed KM Zahirul Islam Palash on a two-day remand rejecting his bail petition in a case filed for the murder of former college teacher Krishna Kaberi Biswas in Mohammadpur area of the capital, reports UNB. Metropolitan Magistrate Md Rashed Talukdar passed the order after Detective Branch inspector Delwar Hossain, also the investigation officer (IO) of the case, produced Palash before the court seeking a 10-day remand for grilling him, who is the lone accused in the sensational murder. In the remand plea, the IO mentioned that Palash needs to be remanded for 10 days to find out the clue to the killing. Earlier on Thursday, another court in Dhaka sent Palash to jail rejecting his bail petition as he surrendered before it and sought bail in the case. According to the case documents, Krishna Kaberi Biswas, 36, wife of BRTA deputy director Sitangshu Shekhar Bishwas and a former teacher of the city’s Mission International College, came under a brutal hammer attack by the accused in their apartment on March 30.
Krishna’s husband Sitangshu, their 14-year-old daughter Srabani Biswas Sruti and eight-year-old daughter Arti Biswas were also injured in the attack. The attacker, Palash, was known to Sitangshu.
On the night of March 30, the killer entered the flat of Sitangshu to greet him on his belated birthday.
Then Palash hit him on the head with a hammer after drugging him with contaminated juice. As Krishna wanted to save her husband, the killer hacked her with a kitchen sickle and later set her on fire. She died the next day.
