DHAKA, June 18, 2020 (BSS) – A Dhaka court today placed two human traffickers on two-day remand each in a case lodged over human trafficking and the recent killings of 26 innocent Bangladeshis in Libya.
The two accused are Abdur Rahman and Mahmudul Hasan.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Habibur Rahman Chowdhury passed the order as CID produced the duo before the court and pleaded to place them on 10-day remand in the case.

Human traffickers recently shot 30 people including 26 Bangladeshis dead in Mizdah, Libya and left 11 others injured in the attack. All the victims were trafficked to the war-torn African state en route to Europe.
Law enforcing agencies after the incident launched coordinated drives against the human trafficking gangs across the country and managed to arrest many alleged human traffickers.
