The High Court (HC) will pass its order today (Monday) on bail petitions filed by BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in three cases, reports UNB.
A bench of Justice AKM Asaduzzaman and Justice JBM Hasan fixed the date after hearing on the petitions on Sunday.
Attorney General Mahbubey Alam said the court fixed Monday for passing order on the bail pleas in the three cases.
Of the cases, two were filed in Cumilla on charge of plotting to carry out subversive acts and another in Narail on charge of defamation.
Earlier, on May 24, the HC fixed Sunday for hearing the bail petitions filed by the BNP chief.
On May 19, the HC granted permission to Khaleda for filing the bail petitions after her lawyers sought for it.
The Appellate Division earlier on May 18 upheld the High Court order that had granted bail to convicted BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in the Zia Orphanage Trust graft case.
