"The BNP leaders and activists will have to appear before the court by Feb 7," lawyer Kaiser Kamal told reporters afterwards. The Awami League leaders blamed BNP for arson attacks on buses. On the other hand, BNP leaders claimed that the ruling party leaders had torched the buses to create controversy over the elections.
