Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Atikur Rahman granted authorities a two-day remand for Enayet Karim Chowdhury on Monday. The Bangladeshi-origin American citizen faces allegations of suspicious activities near the Minto Road ministerial area. Police had requested a ten-day interrogation period when they presented the accused before the court. Another magistrate, Dilruba Afroz Tithi, had previously ordered his detention on September 13 following his arrest. Authorities discovered him in a vehicle close to the restricted government zone.
Court documents reveal accusations that Chowdhury attempted to destabilize Bangladesh's interim administration while operating as a foreign intelligence operative. Officials confiscated two mobile devices containing materials related to anti-government conspiracies. The suspect reportedly confirmed his status as a contracted intelligence agent during questioning sessions. He allegedly stated that he traveled from New York on September 6 to establish an alternative governing body. Chowdhury described the current administration as unstable and claimed it lacked military support.
