Rajuk boss to face contempt of court charge Aug 26
The High Court (HC) yesterday directed Chairman of Rajuk Nurul Huda and its two officials to appear before it on August 26 in connection with a contempt of court petition filed against them.
An HC bench of Justice AHM Shamsuddin Chowdhury Manik and Justice Sheikh Md Zakir Hossain also issued a rule asking them to explain on the day why they should not be punished for committing contempt of court by not complying with its order.
The bench came up with the order following the contempt of court petition filed by one Mizanur Rahman, a construction contractor of Dhaka City Corporation (DCC).
Two other contemnors are Rajuk's director Khizir Ahmed and deputy director Khalilur Rahman.
Following a writ petition, the HC on February 28 this year directed the Rajuk officials to take decision within 20 days whether they will provide relevant papers to petitioner Mizanur Rahman for constructing a 22-storey building of DCC.
Since they did not take any decision as per the HC order, Mizanur on August 18 filed the contempt of court petition with this court.
Barrister M Amir-Ul Islam appeared for the petitioner, while Deputy Attorney General Nazrul Islam Talukder represented the government.
