Prosecutors investigating the 1981 assassination of former President Ziaur Rahman have requested Facebook’s parent company, Meta, to provide data from the Facebook and Messenger accounts of Mozzaffar Hossain, a man arrested for alleged involvement in the killing. Prosecutor and IT expert Tanvir Hasan Zoha confirmed the request was sent on Wednesday, August 5th.

The investigation aims to uncover details about the planning and execution of the assassination. This move marks a significant step in utilizing digital evidence in the long-standing case. Further details regarding the specific information sought were not immediately disclosed.
