Bangla court sends Dhaka cafe attack bomb supplier to remand

A court in Bangladesh today sent the bomb supplier of the country's worst terror attack at an upscale cafe here to seven-day police remand.
Sohel Mahfuz, a militant of the banned Neo-JMB terror outfit, was arrested along with his three accomplices in Shibganj upazila of Chapainawabganj yesterday.
Metropolitan Magistrate AHM Toha passed the order after Humayun Kabir, an inspector of Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime Unit (CTTC) and also the investigation officer (IO) of the case, produced him before his court with a 10-day remand prayer, Daily Star reported.
Mahfuz, known as an expert in explosives, was the bomb supplier for last year's terror attack at the Gulshan's Holey Artisan Bakery (cafe) in Dhaka's posh diplomatic area in which 23 people, including 17 foreigners and an Indian girl, were killed.
