Later, his family members informed Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan.

Subsequently, Bangladesh Police communicated with the Indian Police, who confirmed that Anar was murdered in Kolkata.

On May 22, Anar's daughter Mumtahin Ferdous Dorin filed a case with Sher-e-Bangla Nagar thana of the capital.

The next day, police arrested Syed Amanullah alias Shimul Bhuiyan, Faisal Ali alias Tanvir Bhuiyan and Shilasti Rahman for having connection with the murder.

Meanwhile, Md Siam Hossain is suspected to be involved in the murder. He was detained in Nepal and brought to India. India's CID took him in custody for 14 days. A court in West Bengal placed Siam in remand for the duration.
