Wednesday, 19 February 2014
Nearly two and a half months after his arrest, BNP vice-chairman and its Dhaka city unit convener Sadeque Hossain Khoka was released from jail on bail on Wednesday evening.
As Khoka came out of Dhaka Central Jail around 5.00pm, leaders and activists of BNP and its front organisations, led by Dhaka city unit BNP member secretary Abdus Salam, received him with bouquets at the jail gate.
The jubilant BNP men also brought out a procession marking his release. Khoka, also the former Dhaka City Corporation mayor and an ex-minister, later drove home straight from the jail, according to a news agency.
