A Delhi court has remanded two Bangladeshi nationals, accused of killing prominent political activist Osman Hadi, to 11-day custody with the National Investigation Agency (NIA).

The suspects, Faisal Karim Masud alias Rahul and Alamgir Hossain, were apprehended by the West Bengal Special Task Force while attempting to re-enter Bangladesh. Their arrest follows the daytime murder of Hadi in Dhaka, an incident that incited significant unrest in Bangladesh.

Prosecutors argue that extensive investigation is required to unveil the conspiracy, with the court granting the NIA's request for custody. Hadi's death occurred after being shot on December 12, 2025, before he was flown to Singapore for treatment, where he succumbed to his injuries on December 18.
