Zion, the expelled BCL deputy sports secretary of its BUET unit, was produced in the Chief Metropolitan Magistrates Court in Dhaka on Friday, the fourth day of a five-day remand.
Metropolitan Magistrate Md Sarafuzzaman recorded his statement, according to police’s prosecution department.
Zion, a 15th batch marine engineering student, is the second suspect to give such statement after Ifti Mosharrf Sakal.
Police have so far arrested 18 BUET students, including 14 BCL leaders out of 19 accused in the Abrar murder case.
Abrar’s roommate Md Miazanur Rahman was arrested on Thursday and police produced him in the court on Friday. The judge sent him to jail.
Students launched protests on Monday after Abrar was tortured to death allegedly by BCL leaders in Sher-e-Bangla Hall on Sunday night.
The BCL operatives reportedly bludgeoned Abrar for his Facebook post protesting against a recent deal between Bangladesh and India.
