Earlier on Tuesday, the party leaders and followers formed a human chain at
the same venue seeking Khaleda’s release. On Sunday, the party announced a two-day countrywide fresh programme, including the human chain.
After the jailing of Khaleda, the party observed different peaceful programmes, including leaflet distribution, countrywide demonstration, human chain formation, sit-in, token hunger strike and protest procession, in five phases demanding her release. On February 8, BNP chief Khaleda Zia was sent to jail after a special court sentenced her to five years’ imprisonment in the Zia Orphanage Trust graft case.
