Tangail Additional District and Session’s Judge Maksuda Khanom fixed the date after the deposition of four witnesses in the case.
Khalekuzzaman, Suruzzaman, Anwar Hossain and Mirza Rana testified before the court over the murder.
The main accused, Awami League MP from Tangail-3 (Ghatail) constituency Amanur Rahman Khan Rana, was produced before the court.
On January 18, 2013, Faruk Ahmed, also the Awami League leader, was shot dead in front of his residence in the district town.
Later, Faruk’s wife Nahar Ahmed filed a case in this connection.
Fourteen people, including four brothers of Tangail’s influential Khan family, were made accused in the murder case.
The Awami League MP surrendered to the Tangail additional district and session’s judge court on September 18, 2016 ending his 22-month fugitive run in the freedom fighter murder case.
Rana had been denied bail on several occasions by both the Tangail trial court and the High Court.
