GK Shamim remanded again
A Dhaka court today placed G K Shamim, a top government listed contractor, on a nine-day fresh remand in connection with two separate cases.
Five-days remand prayer was granted in the money laundering case while four days for the case under the Arms Act filed with Gulshan Police Station.
Metropolitan Magistrate Mohammad Jashim passed the order after CID’s Senior Superintendent of Police Abu Sayeed and also the Investigation Officer of the cases produced Shamim before it with a ten-day remand prayer.
Yesterday, another Dhaka court placed Shamim’s seven bodyguards on four-day remand each for interrogation in the same case.
On September 26, Shamim and his bodyguards were shown arrested in a money laundering case.
Rab members on September 20 arrested Shamim on charges of extortion and tender manipulation. His seven bodyguards were also arrested at the time.
The elite force raided his house and office in the city’s Niketan and seized eight firearms, a huge amount of ammunition, fixed deposit receipt (FDR) worth Tk 165 crore, around Tk 1.8 crore in cash, a large stash of US and Singaporean dollars and some foreign liquor.
The next day, Shamim was placed on a 10-day remand in cases filed under the Arms Act and Narcotics Control Act.
