Sabbir Murder
Complainant cross examined
State appointed lawyers yesterday cross-examined AFM Asif, complainant of the Humayun Kabir Sabbir murder case, on behalf of Bashundhara Group Chairman Ahmed Akbar Sobhan Shah Alam's son Shafiat Sobhan Sanvir and two others.
Sanvir and two guards of Bashundhara Group Nure Alam and Humayun Kabir have been absconding since the case was filed.
Advocate Gazi Shah Alam crossed the complainant on different points where he (complainant) was asked that Sanvir was not involved with killing the victim.
But the complainant told the court that on the night of the incident he saw his brother-in-law Sabbir talking to Sanvir over cell phone.
Judge Mohammad Rezaul Islam of the Speedy Trial Tribunal-4 recorded statement of the complainant for over two hours. The court then fixed March 15 for the next hearing.
On that day, state appointed lawyers will again cross-examine the complainant.
Meantime, lawyers of two accused Shamsuddin Ahmed and Sanvir's body guard Khairul Hassan Uzzal, now on bail, had completed their cross-examination to the complainant. Humayun Kabir Sabbir, a director of Bashundhara Telecommunications Network Ltd, was brutally killed on July 5, 2006.
