Charge framing deferred again

A Speedy Trial Tribunal of Sylhet yesterday again deferred till July 14 the charge framing of former finance minister SAMS Kibria murder case.

Five people, including Kibria, were killed and 70 others injured in a grenade attack on a public meeting of local Awami League at Baidder Bazar in Sadar upazila on January 27, 2005.

Our Moulvibazar correspondent reports: the date was deffered as two of the accused--former state minister for home Lutfuzzaman Babor and suspended mayor of Sylhet City Corporation Ariful Haque Chowdhury--were not present before the court yesterday.
