A court in Dhaka on Tuesday ordered to send Awami League Advisory Council Member Amir Hossain Amu to prison after remand in trader Abdul Wadud murder case.

Earlier this morning, investigation officer DB police`s Romna zonal team police inspector Jahangir Arif prayed to keep Amu inside jail for proper investigation.

Later, after hearing Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Sharifur Rahman sent him jail rejecting the bail prayer filed by Amu`s lawyer.
