The Bangladesh High Court has acquitted all accused individuals, including Tarique Rahman, acting chairman of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and son of former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, as well as Lutfozzaman Babar, former state minister for home affairs, in the case concerning the deadly August 21, 2004 grenade attack. The attack targeted then-Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and resulted in numerous casualties. Tarique Rahman, who has been living in exile in London, is expected to return to Bangladesh following the court's decision.
