Two separate cases were filed yesterday regarding the clash between Awami league and BNP activists at Pallabi in the city on Friday. Atiqul Islam, general secretary of Ward No. 6 Awami League, filed a case, accusing 78 BNP leaders and activists, including two ward councillors, for ransacking his office and his brother's shop. Sub-Inspector Yakub Ali of Pallabi Police Station filed another case, accusing the same leaders and activists of BNP for assaulting police and creating a bar to discharging their duties. Police on Friday detained about 78 BNP activists during a clash between Awami League and BNP that left 25 people injured at Mirpur-6. The clash ensued as both the organisations brought out processions in the same area at the same time. Police produced the arrestees before a Dhaka court yesterday where 73 leaders, including the two councillors, and activists got bail while the five others were sent to jail.
