Court rejects Don's bail plea in Salman Shah killing case
A court here today cancelled a bail plea of actor Ashraful Haque Don in a case lodged over the murder of the popular movie superstar Salman Shah. Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Mohammad Ehsanul Islam passed the order after holding a hearing in this connection.
Immigration police arrested Don at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in the early hours of August 9 and later handed him over to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID). The court later on that day sent him to jail.
Salman Shah's maternal uncle, Mohammad Alamgir, popularly known as Alamgir Kumkum, on October 21, 2025, filed the case against 11 people, including Salman's wife Samira Haque, with the capital's Ramna Police Station under sections 302 and 34 of the Penal Code.
The other accused are: Aziz Mohammad Bhai, Samira's mother Latifa Haque Lusi, Don, David, Zaved, Faruk, Ruby, A Sattar, Saju and Rijvi Ahmed Farhad.
Earlier on October 20, 2025, Dhaka's sixth Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md Jannatul Ferdous Ibn Haque ordered the officer-in-charge (OC) of Ramna Police Station to treat the case filed over the death of Chowdhury Mohammad Shahriar (Emon), popularly known as Salman Shah, as a murder case and submit a report in this regard, reports BSS.
