District police superintendent Jayedul Alam said, on Sunday, police sought 10 days remand in case of rape by enticement, fraud and assault of a woman.

"DB police have sought 7 days each for interrogation in Royal resort rampage case and vandalism of upazila Awami League (AL) office case," said the superintendent.

On 30 April, a woman whom Mamunul claimed as his second wife filed a case against him with Sonargaon police station accusing him of rape on false pretext of marriage, fraud and assault.
