Youth who removed nuts, bolts of Padma Bridge placed on 7-day remand

A Shariatpur court today (June 27, 2022) placed Bayezid Talha on a seven-day remand in a case filed for removing nuts and bolts from the railing of the Padma Bridge.

The Chief Judicial Magistrate Court of Shariatpur passed the order after Criminal Investigation Department (CID) produced him before the court with a 10-day remand prayer, said court sources.

CID arrested Bayezid from Dhaka's Shantinagar area yesterday.

Later, a case was filed with Padma Bridge South Police Station against Bayezid and some others in this connection.

A 34-second long TikTok video went viral on social media where it was seen that the youth standing on Padma Bridge was removing nuts and bolts from its railing.

In another 26-second long video another youth was seen loosening and then fastening nuts and bolts on Padma Bridge's railing.

CID officials said they are looking for the youth as well.
