Order on cancellation of Samrat’s bail today

The High Court will give an order today (May 18) on an appeal petition filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) seeking the cancellation of bail granted to expelled Jubo League leader Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat.

The bench of Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder and Justice Kazi Md Ejarul Haque Akondo will pass the order.

Earlier on May 11, the Judge of the Special Judge Court-6 of Dhaka, Al Asad Md Asifuzzaman, granted bail to Samrat in an ACC case after hearing a bail petition.

On November 12 of 2019, the ACC filed the case against Samrat with its Integrated District office-1 of Dhaka for amassing an illegal wealth of Tk 2.94 crore.
