DHAKA, Dec 22, 2022 (BSS) - A Dhaka court today set January 26 for submitting probe report in a case lodged over recent escape of two militants, who have been sentenced to death, from police custody at a Dhaka court.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Farah Diba Chonda passed the order as police failed to submit the report in the case.

Death-row convicts Abu Siddiq Sohel and Moinul Hasan Shamim, members of banned militant outfit Ansar-al Islam, were whisked away by their associates by beating police and spraying some chemical on their eyes at Dhaka Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) court arena on November 20.

Court inspector Md Julhash later filed the case with Kotwali Police Station.
