A Chittagong court on Wednesday rejected the bail petition of former superintendent of police (SP) Babul Akter in a case filed over the murder of his wife Mahmuda Khanam Mitu.
Chittagong Metropolitan Sessions Judge Sheikh Asfakur Rahman passed the order after a hearing.
Earlier on August 10, Metropolitan Magistrate Shafi Uddin denied his bail after a virtual hearing of the bail petition filed by Babul Akter's lawyer.
