PBI team at Hathazari to investigate into case filed over Allama Shafi’s death

A team of Police Bureau Investigation (PBI) have visited the Hathazari Madrasa to conduct probe into a case filed over the death of former Hefazat-e-Islam Amir Allama Shah Ahmad Shafi.

The team led by PBI Special Superintendent Iqbal Hossain visited the Hathazari madrasa at Tuesday (January 12) noon.

They talked to Allama Junaid Babunagari and others over the investigation.

Police personnel Iqbal Hossain confirmed the visit of Madrasa.

He said, “As part of the case investigation, the PBI team visited the madrasa and spoke to those concerned. At that time, the current Amir of Hefazat-e-Islam, Junaid Babunagari and the Madrasa authorities provided overall support to the PBI. Regarding the investigation of the case, the PBI said that the investigation report of this case will be submitted to the court within the stipulated time.”

Mentionable, Allama Shafi’s brother-in-law Maulana Mohammad Mainuddin filed a case in the Chittagong court on December 17 last year alleging that Allama Shafi was killed in a premeditated manner. 

Later, the court directed the PBI to investigate the case and submit a report within a month.
