Bangladesh Police on Sunday said they have no “specific information” regarding the whereabouts of the prime suspect in the killing of prominent youth leader Sharif Osman Hadi. The statement came a day after Hadi’s Inqilab Mancha party issued a 24-hour ultimatum to the interim government on Saturday, demanding “visible progress” in arresting those responsible for the murder. “We do not have specific information about Faisal's last location. Our forces and intelligence agencies are working to obtain it,” Islam said, adding that there was no credible information indicating the suspect had fled the country. The 32-year-old Inqilab Mancha spokesperson was shot in the head by masked assailants during an election campaign in central Dhaka’s Bijoynagar area on December 12.
