Indictment hearing against Khaleda for stigmatizing Liberation War on
Jan 12

DHAKA, Dec 4, 2019 (BSS) – A court here today set January 12 for
holding hearing on charge framing in a case against BNP chairperson Begum
Khaleda Zia for stigmatizing War of Liberation.

Today was fixed for holding hearing on the matter, but the defence
pleaded to allow them time in the case. Accepting the defence plea,
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Asaduzzaman Noor reset the
date.

Jananetri Parishad president AB Siddiqui filed another defamation case
on November 3, 2016, against Khaleda Zia and her late husband Ziaur Rahman
for stigmatizing War of Liberation by rehabilitating anti- Liberation War
elements.

The BNP chairperson is now in bail in the case.
