Jhenaidah Member of Parliament Anwarul Azim Anar's family members will go to India shortly to provide DNA samples in connection with his murder.
If Indian CID calls on them to go to India, it will be assumed that they (CID) would call them for a DNA test.
Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Additional Commissioner and chief of Detective Branch (DB) Mohammad Harunur Rashid revealed this while talking to reporters at DB office on Saturday.

Replying to another question, Harun said they have detained a local Awami League leader of Jhenaidah in connection with the killing of MP Anar.
"He is being interrogated. Many important matters are being asked. However, he has not yet been officially shown as arrested. If any involvement is found during the interrogation, he will be shown as arrested," Harun said.
