PK Halder’s aide remanded for 3 days

A Dhaka court has placed Sukumar Mridha and her daughter Anindita, two close aide of former managing director of NRB Global Bank Proshanta Kumar Halder, on a three-day remand.

Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge KM Imrul Kayes passed the order on Thursday (January 21).
