A Dhaka court on Monday, April 27, 2026, cancelled the bail of former Chhatra League leader Lavlu Mollah Shishir, who is accused in a case over an attack on Begum Khaleda Zia’s motorcade. The decision came a day after another Dhaka court had granted him bail on April 26. Shishir, a former president of Masterda Surya Sen Hall Chhatra League and deputy registrar of Dhaka University, had been arrested in connection with the case filed at Shahbagh Police Station.

According to the case, on April 22, 2015, during an election campaign at Banglamotor Signal in Shahbagh, the accused allegedly attacked Khaleda Zia’s motorcade with weapons intending to kill her. The attack resulted in damage to 12 to 14 vehicles and the burning of four motorcycles, while her security personnel were injured. The case was filed on November 23, 2024, at Shahbagh Police Station.

The court’s latest order reverses the earlier bail decision, keeping the accused in custody as the legal proceedings continue.
