| A Chittagong court yesterday framed charges against five Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) activists in two cases filed for bomb attacks and possession of illegal explosives. Judge Md Enamul Haque Bhuiyan of the Fourth Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge's Court framed charges against four JMB men for their alleged role in masterminding bomb attacks on Chittagong Court Building premises on October 3, 2005. The case against Javed Iqbal alias Mohammad, Chittagong divisional chief of the JMB, Jahid Hossain alias Bomb Mijan, an explosives expert, Shahdat Hossain alias Shahdat Ali and Abdul Malek alias Laltu was filed with Kotwali Police Station. The same court framed charges against Rafiqul Islam alias Javed and Javed Iqbal alias Mohammad for possessing illegal firearms and explosives which law enforcers recovered from the port city's Kattali area on December 13, 2005. A case was filed against them with Pahartali Police Station the following day. The court earlier dropped the names of three JMB kingpins -- Abdur Rahman, Siddiqul Islam alias Bangla Bhai and Ataur Rahman Sunny -- from the charge sheets of the cases following their executions late last March. |
