A Dhaka court on Monday placed BNP central executive committee member Advocate Nipun Roy Chowdhury on a three-day remand for plotting subversion activities including torching passenger buses.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Mamunur Rashid passed the order as Hazaribagh police produced her before the court and pleaded to place her on seven-day remand.
Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) members arrested Nipun on March 28 from her Rayer Bazar home.
