Seven Biman engineers on fresh 8-day remand

Seven suspended Biman engineers were remanded in police custody for eight more days on Friday for interrogation in a case filed on charge of criminal conspiracy and sabotage for the emergency landing of prime ministers flight on November 27.
Dhaka metropolitan magistrate Wayez Kuruni Khan Chowdhury passed the order after hearing a petition filed by Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime Unit inspector Mahabub
Alam, also the investigation officer of the case, seeking the seven in custody for 10 days for interrogation.
In the petition, the investigation officer stated that some important information was extracted from the seven in the interrogation of them in custody for seven days and they needed to be further interrogated in custody.
The seven Biman officials – chief engineer (production) Debesh Chowdhury, chief engineer (inspection and quality control) SA Siddique, principal engineer, Billal Hossain, and engineering officers Samiul Haque, Lutfor Rahman, Milon Chandra Biswas and Zakir Hossin – were arrested at their houses in Dhaka in overnight drives on December 22 and were remanded in police custody for seven days for interrogation.
Biman Bangladesh Airlines director (engineering and material management retired wing commander MM Asaduzzaman filed the case against eight engineers and a technician with Dhaka airport police on December 21, some 25 days after the emergency landing of a flight of Boeing 777-300ER. 
The rest two accused, engineering officer SM Rokonuzzaman and junior technician Siddiqur Rahman, surrendered to the same court which remanded them in jail on December 22. They were, however, remanded in police custody on December 28 for seven days for interrogation.
The complaint stated that the alleged offences were committed at the Biman’s hanger at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport during repairing of the aircraft between 8:30am and 6:30pm on November 26, just a day before the prime minister flew for Hungary.
It stated that the probe into the incident revealed that a loose B-nut led to oil seepage inside the left engine of the aircraft causing fall in oil pressure in the engine that forced the emergency landing.
Technician Siddiqur was named in the case as prime accused as he had repaired ‘Oil Pressure Sensor’ in absence of any engineer.
