Arsalan scion Raghib Parwez — the prime accused in the Jaguar crash that killed two Bangladeshis on Shakespeare Sarani last year — was granted conditional bail for two months on Wednesday.
The high court, which issued the bail, also ordered that Raghib be kept at the Bangur Institute of Neurosciences, where he is undergoing treatment, till the authorities decide he is fit for treatment as an outdoor patient.
Police sources said the court observed that if Raghib was declared fit, he would be sent home. He, however, cannot leave home without the consent of the officer-in-charge of the local police station.
Raghib’s family had moved his bail petition after the government decided to release over 3,000 convicts and undertrials from various jails to decongest the premises to contain the spread of the coronavirus.
Raghib was allegedly at the wheel of a Jaguar F-PACE on the night of August 16 when it crashed into a Mercedes E-Class 220d, which in turn had hit two Bangladeshis, killing them on the spot.
