Arrest, arson and attacks on pickets mark the yesterday's dawn-to-dusk countrywide hartal called by opposition BNP. Pickets set fire to a bus in Motijheel area while some city roads wear deserted look during hartal hours. Several pro-hartal activists were also injured during attacks by anti-hartal activists. Policemen also keep a close watch at different points in the city.
