The case filed by Amir Hamza against Hasina and six others was accepted by Dhaka's chief metropolitan magistrate's court after a hearing, Hamza's lawyer Anwarul Islam said. Magistrate Rajesh Chowdhury ordered police to investigate the case, Islam added.
It was the first case filed against Hasina following a violent uprising that killed about 300 people, many of them college and university students. She fled to India on Aug. 5 and has been sheltering in New Delhi.
The other accused in the case included Obaidul Quader, the general secretary of Hasina's Awami League party, former Interior Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal and other senior police officials.
Hamza alleged grocer Abu Saeed was killed on July 19 around 4 p.m. (1000 GMT) when he was hit by a bullet while crossing the street as police fired on protesting students and other people demonstrating against quotas in government jobs in the Mohammadpur area of Dhaka.
