Allowing the plea, Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Tofazzal Hossain recorded Robin’s confessional statement and sent him to jail afterwards.

Of those ten accused, Mozahidur Rahaman, Anik Sarkar Apu, Ifti Mosharraf Sokal and Meftahul Islam Jiyon already gave confessional statement before different Dhaka courts.

Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) students and the varsity authorities found Abrar, 22, on first-floor stairs of Sher-e- Bangla Hall and rushed him to Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), where doctors declared him dead at around 6.30 am. Abrar’s father filed the case with Chawkbazar Police Station against 19 people.
