Attack on Bernicat's convoy: Probe report on June 4

A Dhaka court on Sunday asked detectives to submit by June 4 the investigation report into the case filed over the attack on the convoy of former US ambassador in Dhaka Marcia Bernicat.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Rashidul Alam passed the order after Detective Branch of police failed to submit its report on Sunday.

According to the probe report, on August 4, 2018, the nine accused, along with some 15 to 20 unidentified people, gathered near the Iqbal Road residence of Badiul Alam and chased Bernicat's car.

The report also said that the accused then threw brick chips towards it.

Ambassador Marcia Bernicat and her security team managed to leave the area unharmed.

On August 10, 2018, following the attack, Shusashoner Jonno Nagorik (Shujan) Secretary Badiul Alam Majumdar filed the case with Mohammadpur Police Station.

However, the accused vandalised the house of the complainant and made death threats to his wife and son.

On March 1, 2022, the court framed charges against the nine -- Firoz Mahmud, Naimul Hasan Rasel, Mir Amzad Hossain Akash, Sazu Islam, Razibul Islam Razu, Shahidul Alam Khan Kajol, Mozahid Azmi Tanna, Siam and Oli Ahmed Jony -- in the case.
