The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court (SC) on Thursday ordered two then directors of International Leasing and Financial Service Basudeb Banerjee and his wife Papia Banerjee, alleged associates of Prasanta Kumar Halder alias PK Halder, to surrender before a trial court within June 04, reports BSS.
An Appellate Division bench headed by Justice M Enayetur Rahim passed the order, disposing of a plea of Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). A High Court division bench on May 09 granted them six-week anticipatory bail, making the ACC to appeal against the order with the Appellate Division.
The Appellate Division chamber judge court on May 13 stayed the High Court bail order and asked the two accused to surrender before trial court within two weeks.
