A Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Court has rejected a case filed against former Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus, former interim government law adviser Dr. Asif Nazrul, and 14 others over the Milestone School and College plane crash that killed students in Uttara. The case was filed on Thursday morning by Usaimong Marma, father of a deceased student, before Magistrate Ariful Islam’s court. After recording the plaintiff’s statement, the court later dismissed the application, citing insufficient grounds to accept the case. Court assistant Shahadat Hossain confirmed the dismissal order.

According to the case details, on July 21, 2025, an F-7 BGI training aircraft under the supervision of the accused crashed into Milestone School and College, killing 35 people, including 28 students, and injuring 172 others. The plaintiff alleged that the aircraft was defective and that the school lacked proper fire safety measures and construction compliance, which hindered rescue operations.

The crash also killed the pilot, Flight Lieutenant Md. Taufiq Islam. The court’s decision effectively ends this particular attempt to bring criminal charges related to the tragedy.
