A Dhaka court today (February 14) granted bail to BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir and its Standing Committee Member Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury in a case filed for vandalising the chief justice's residence.

Since they were granted bail in all 11 cases related to the mass rally held in front of BNP’s Nayapaltan central office on 28 October, there was no legal bar to their release from prison.

Acting judge of the Dhaka Metropolitan Session Judges Court Faisal Atiq Bin Quader passed the order after their lawyers submitted two separate petitions, seeking bail for their clients in connection with the case.
