A Dhaka court on Thursday rescheduled the hearing on charge framing for the case involving the death of truck driver Md Hossain during the July-August mass uprising 2024, postponing proceedings until September 1.

The case involves former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and 33 other co-accused.

Although Thursday was designated for the hearing, the session could not proceed as prison officials were unable to produce several of the accused individuals before the court.

Consequently, Judge Robiul Alam of the Dhaka Special Judge Court-4 granted a time extension requested by the prosecution and set the new date for the proceedings.
