After a hearing on 5 February, Dhaka Additional Metropolitan Magistrate Awlad Hossain Mohammad Zunaid granted Sarwar bail on a bond of Tk5,000. Sarwar’s lawyer, Alamgir Hossain, submitted the bail petition, while Md Abdur Razzaque, counsel for the complainant, opposed the bail and argued for its cancellation. Addressing the investigating officer in court, the complainant’s lawyer questioned why police had not sought remand for the accused. I do not know why remand was not sought in this case,” he said, adding that Sarwar’s actions warranted custodial interrogation. Speaking before the court, Sarwar denied the allegations.
