Ctg court indicts 24 in BCL leader Sudipta's murder case

A Chattogram court has indicted 24 suspects in the murder case of Bangladesh Chhatra League leader Sudipta Biswas, reports bdnews24.com.
Md Amirul Islam, second additional metropolitan sessions judge, framed the charges on Monday.
The charge sheet was submitted to the court over one and a half years ago and the indictment hearing was deferred six times.
Md Fakhruddin Chowdhury, state lawyer for the Chattogram court, said, "We filed a petition for the indictment and held a hearing. The court framed charges against all the accused under section 302 at the end of the hearing."
"The court has set October 30 as the starting date for the recording of testimonies from witnesses in the case."
All the accused in the case are out on bail. Of the suspects, only Abu Jihad Siddiqui failed to appear in court during Monday's hearing. The court scrapped his bail and issued an arrest warrant against him.
Sudipta's father Meghnath Biswas said, "The indictment has occurred after a long time. Now the recording of witness testimony will begin. The accused in the case are very rich and powerful."
