Bahauddin and the reporters were accused in a case filed by a district Jamaat leader for publishing 'false, malicious and motivated' reports in the Inqilab on March 9 under caption "rise of JMB under shelter of Jamaat", "success of Rab diminished by a quarter."
The daily published another report on March 11 under caption "JMB launched the attack after meeting with Jamaat", said the petitioner.
