Verdict on appeals of Gazipur attack case July 28
The High Court yesterday fixed July 28 for delivering verdict on the death reference and appeals in a case filed over a suicide bomb attack inside the Gazipur Bar Association office in 2005 that killed nine people and injured scores of others.
On November 29, 2005, suicide bomber Nazir Hossain, also known as Shariat Ullah, of Gaibandha, walked into the office on the ground floor of the Hall Building-2 at Bhawal Rajbari court and detonated the bomb strapped to his body. The bombing was apparently a part of banned militant outfit Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh's attack on the judiciary.
On June 20, 2013, a Dhaka court sentenced 10 members of JMB to death for carrying out the attack.
