BNP Joint Secretary General Khairul Kabir Khokon was freed from jail after granting bail on Wednesday after more than six and a half months of his arrest.
He walked out of Dhaka Central Jail in Keraniganj around 12:30pm, said BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi.
After the release, some leaders and activists received Khokon with flowers at the jail gate.
On October 26, 2023, a team of Detective Branch (DB) detained Khokon from his brother’s house in the Sipahibagh area.
Later, he was shown arrested in several cases filed in Dhaka and Narsingdi districts.
