A court in Dhaka on Wednesday deferred the charge framing hearing on the 11 cases, including a sedition case, against Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) chairperson Khaleda Zia.
Due to her illness, the BNP chief failed to appear in the court today.
Then Dhaka Metropolitan Sessions Judge Md Asaduzzaman set October 12 for next hearing following a time plea by the Khaleda Zia's lawyer.
Among the 11 cases, 10 were filed in the first three months of 2015 over arson attacks, while the other one was lodged with a Dhaka court on charges of making seditious comments on freedom fighters and martyrs of the Liberation War.
