The 19 people who were arrested on Tuesday for their alleged role in the violent demonstration outside the Bangladesh deputy high commission were produced in court on Wednesday. ADVERTISEMENTChief public prosecutor Sourin Ghosal said that the prosecution had sought police remand for 12 among the 19 arrested. “It is vital to ascertain the character of the mob that tried to attack the Bangladesh deputy high commission. We sought a full-term police remand for the 12 men who were arrested on Tuesday,” said Ghosal. The demonstrators, dressed in saffron and carrying saffron flags, started the violent protest outside the deputy high commission by breaching the first guardrail cordon put up by police and pushing the personnel to make their way forward.
