Judge KM Emrul Kayesh of the Senior Special Judge’s Court of Dhaka passed the order after Deputy Director of ACC Md Nurul Huda who is also investigation officer of the case, produced him before his court after completion of his five-day remand.

In the forwarding report, the IO said Razzak gave important information about fake N95 masks and he appealed to the court to keep him in jail until the probe is completed, the IO added.

Defence, however, submitted a petition seeking bail for his client.

After hearing both sides, the judge turned down his bail and sent him to Dhaka Central Jail in Keraniganj.
