Main accused of Khaleda's motorcade attack held


The main accused of the attack on Khaleda Zia's motorcade in June 2001 was arrested here yesterday.

The joint forces arrested the accused, Majnu Khan, 28, an Awami League activist, in Char Gumuria.

A group of unruly people had blocked the Kazir Tek ferryghat in Madaripur on June 17, 2001 while the then opposition leader Khaleda Zia was going on an organisational tour of the southern region.

Majnu was accused in the case filed in connection with the attack.
