A court in eastern Bangladesh issued an arrest warrant for former prime minister and opposition leader Khaleda Zia involving an arson attack during an anti-government protest two years ago.
Magistrate issued orders in a packed courtroom in Comilla district against Khaleda Zia and 48 other opposition activists in the case after a police official pressed charges against them.
The official says authorities found Khaleda Zia and the others responsible for the attack on a bus that killed eight people in 2015.
