Kibria Killing
Qaiyum's bail prayer rejected


The District and Sessions Judge's Court here yesterday rejected the bail prayer of AKM Abdul Qaiyum, the prime accused in the former finance minister Shah AMS Kibria murder case.

Judge Md Azizul Islam directed the authorities concerned to send all documents of the case to the magistrate court, which had earlier rejected Qaiyum's bail prayer.

Court sources said the judge also turned down the prayer of Qaiyum's lawyers, seeking more time to procure necessary papers and documents for submission.

Kibria was killed in a grenade attack at Boiddyer Bazar in Sadar upazila of the district on January 27.
