July 1 attack charge sheet to be flawless

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan yesterday said investigators were taking time to submit the charge sheet in the Holey Artisan attack case as they want it to be flawless.

“A flawless charge sheet will be submitted soon,” he told reporters at his secretariat office on the first working day after the Eid vacation.

The minister said Eid holidaymakers this year enjoyed traffic jam-free journeys on highways across the country.

Law enforcers took adequate measures to ensure trouble-free journeys of holidaymakers, Asaduzzaman added.

“This has been possible due to continuous monitoring by Road, Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader with assistance from law enforcers.”

Twenty hostages, including 17 foreign nationals, were killed by militants at Holey Artisan Bakery in the capital's Gulshan on July 1 last year.

The following day, five attackers and one suspected associate of them were killed during a commando operation at the café.
