Selima, 2 others granted bail
BNP Vice-Chairman Selima Rahman and two others was granted bail yesterday in a criminal case filed against them for making an attempt to halt movement of vehicles and torching vehicles.
Metropolitan Magistrate Abdul Kader passed the order after Sub-inspector Mahbub Alam of Gulshan Police Station produced them before the court with a three-day remand prayer.
The court, however, denied bail to seven others and sent them to jail in the same case filed against them for the same charges under Section 54 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC).
The court also rejected a three-day remand prayer to interrogate them.
Police picked up 10 female activists of BNP, including Selima, in Gulshan area when they brought out a procession during their second day's hartal on Monday.
Two others who got bail are Advocate Sheuli and Advocate Diba Khan.
The pro-BNP lawyers raised hue and cry and created a chaotic situation in the courtroom protesting the rejection of bail to seven other woman activists.
