After that incident, the General Officer Staff (GOC) of the 24th Infantry Division of the Army, Mohammad Abul Manjur, was arrested by the police in Chittagong. After being taken from police custody to Chittagong cantonment on June 1, he was shot dead. After 14 years of this incident on February 28, 1995, Manzoor's brother lawyer Abul Mansoor Ahmed filed a murder case at Panchlaish police station in Chittagong. On June 27, 1995, the CID charged 5 people including Ershad in the court. Then on January 22, after presenting the arguments of the state party, the first additional district and session judge of the (temporary) court established next to Dhaka Central Jail, Hosne Ara Aktar, fixed the date of judgment on February 10.
