Bones found at Dhanmondi 32

A team from the crime scene unit of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) on Monday visited the demolished residence of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in Dhanmondi 32 and collected some crime-related evidences.

The team consisting of five to six members made the visit around 9:00 am and spent a considerable amount of time there.

CID spokesperson and Special Superintendent of Police Jasim Uddin Khan said: "A team from CID's crime scene unit visited Dhanmondi 32. The crime scene unit has gathered crime-related evidences from the site. At this  moment, we cannot disclose any further details."

Officer-in-charge (OC) of Dhanmondi Police Station Ali Ahmed Masud, however, stated that some bones were found in Dhanmondi 32. It is yet to be ascertained whether the bones belong to a human or some other animals, he said, adding that the crime scene unit will examine the bones in their lab.

When asked whether the bones were discovered at the residence in Dhanmondi 32, the OC said, "I cannot specify the exact location where they were found. However, I can confirm that these bones were found in Dhanmondi 32."

Earlier on Sunday, the firemen pumped water out of the basement of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's house, following suspicions about the presence of a secret detention cell. However, nothing was found after it was completely drained.
