HC stays ACC notice on Khaleda
Sunday, 25 November 2007
The High Court Sunday stayed the wealth statement notice served by the Anticorruption Commission on former prime minister Khaleda Zia. It also issued a rule nisi to the ACC chairman, home secretary and an ACC deputy director to explain within eight weeks why the notice should not be declared illegal. An HC bench of justice Shah Abu Nayeem Mominur Rahman and justice Zubayer Ahmed Chowdhury delivered the order following a writ petition filed by Khaleda's lawyers Thursday.
