HC clears way for Labour Court proceedings against Prof Yunus
FE REPORT | Thursday, 18 August 2022
The High Court on Wednesday cleared way for Labour Court to continue its proceedings of a case filed against Nobel laureate Prof Dr Muhammad Yunus and three others on charge of violating the labour law.
The High Court has discharged a rule issued earlier upon the bodies concerned to explain as to why they should not be directed to scrap the trial proceedings of the case filed against Grameen Telecom chairman Prof Yunus and three others.
The High Court bench of Justice S M Kuddus Zaman and Justice Fahmida Quader passed the order after hearing the rule.
Barrister Abdullah Al Mamun appeared in the case hearing on behalf of the Prof Yunus, while Advocate Khurshid Alam Khan represented the plaintiff, the Department of Inspection for Factories and Establishments (DIFE).
Abdullah Al Mamun said they will file appeal against the High Court order.
