Govt seeks stay on Khaleda's bail order


The government has filed a petition with the Chamber Judge seeking a stay on the High Court order that granted bail for six months to BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in two cases of Cumilla, reports UNB.
"The hearing on the stay petition is likely to be held anytime today (Monday)," said deputy attorney general Md Bashir Ullah.
Earlier in the morning, the High Court granted bail for six months to BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in two cases of Cumilla and rejected the bail petition in a defamation case of Narail.
A bench of Justice AKM Asaduzzaman and Justice JBM Hasan came up with the order.
Of the cases, two were filed against Khaleda in Cumilla on charge of plotting to carry out subversive activities and another in Narail on defamation charges.
