Court Orders to Interrogate Evaly CEO Russel at Jail Gate

The court has not granted remand to Mohammad Russel, chief executive officer (CEO) of e-commerce company Evaly, in a case filed at Dhanmondi police station. At the same time, he has been directed to be interrogated at the jail gate.

Dhaka Additional Metropolitan Magistrate Hasibul Haque passed the order after a hearing on Thursday (September 23).

He was produced before the Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate's Court after a one-day remand in a Dhanmondi police fraud case. The investigating officer requested to keep him in jail till the investigation of the case is completed. Meanwhile, in another fraud case of Dhanmondi police station, the police requested to remand him for another five days.

On the other hand, his lawyer appealed for bail. Following the hearing, the judge rejected his remand and bail plea and directed him to be interrogated at the jail gate within three days.

Earlier on September 21, the court had remanded Mohammad Russel for one day in a fraud case at the Dhanmondi police station. On the other hand, Russel's wife Shamima Nasrin, the chairman of the organization, was denied remand and bail plea and was ordered to be sent to jail.
