Muktijuddho Mancha’s central committee general secretary Al Mamun and the organization’s Dhaka University unit general secretary Yasir Arafat Turjo were granted bail in the case on Tuesday.

Judge KM Imrul Kayes of Dhaka Metropolitan Session Court passed the order after defense counsel Kazi Nojibullah Hiru filed a bail petition before the court seeking bail for his clients.
