A Dhaka court has placed Diamond World Managing Director Dilip Kumar Agarwala on a four-day remand in a case filed over the attempted murder of a protester, A Jabbar, 21, during the 2024 July Uprising.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Sarah Farzana Haque issued the order following a petition by the investigation officer, after Sub-Inspector Md Suman Mia of Uttara West Police Station had sought a seven-day remand. Agarwala, also a central sub-committee member of the now-banned Bangladesh Awami League, was arrested by the Detective Branch of DMP from Banani on October 19 and was previously granted a one-day remand in a money laundering case.
