India arrests another suspect in Bangladesh uprising leader’s killing

Indian police stated they had arrested a Bangladeshi man for allegedly helping two fellow nationals accused of murdering a popular student leader in Dhaka enter India illegally.



Sharif Osman Hadi, a vocal India critic who took part in Bangladesh’s 2024 mass uprising, was shot by masked assailants in Dhaka on Dec 12 and later succumbed to his injuries at a hospital in Singapore.



West Bengal police named Faisal Karim Masud and Alamgir Hossain as the prime suspects in the killing and said they allegedly fled Bangladesh through the Haluaghat border with India shortly after Hadi’s attack.



India arrested the pair on March 8 and they remain in police custody.
