A court on Monday framed charges in a case lodged against 28 leaders and activists of BNP including its publicity affairs secretary Shahid Uddin Chowdhury Annie and Joint Secretary General Khairul Kabir Khokon, with capital's Paltan police station.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Ali Haider passed the order in the presence of the accused including Annie and Khokon.
