Although the RAB DG had earlier said Limon was innocent, the home minister says it is for the court to decide his case.
"Police have included his name in the charge sheet after an investigation. Now it's for the court to decide," Sahara Khatun said on Thursday.
Limon, a college student of Jhalakati, got his leg amputated after being shot by RAB personnel on March 23.
Police submitted a charge sheet on Wednesday in the case, terming Limon a gangster.
A RAB team reportedly opened fire on Limon, who used to work in a brick kiln, taking him to a place adjacent to his house at Jamaddarhat in Rajapur Upazila of Jhalakati on Mar 23, barely two weeks before his Higher Secondary Certificate examinations.
At a press meet on Apr 11, RAB DG Mokhlesur Rahman had said, "Limon Hossain may be a victim of the shootout between RAB and criminals as he received bullet injuries in the leg."
"It was a mistake and Limon was innocent," he added.
