| [Bangla Daily Star] Stray incidents of violence, like arson, vandalism and kaboom of homemade bombs, marked the first day of BNP-led alliance's 36-hour countrywide shutdown yesterday. During the hartal ... a peculiarly Bangla combination of a general strike and a riot, used by both major political groups in lieu of actual governance ... , a man was killed when a bus chased by hartal supporters ploughed through makeshift tea stalls at Khajura bus stand in Jessore. |
