Corruption
HC clears way for trial of Redowan
The High Court (HC) yesterday cleared the way for continuing a corruption case against former BNP state minister for liberation war affairs Redowan Ahmed at the trial court.
Earlier in 2008, the same court had stayed the proceedings of the case against Redowan, now a presidium member of National Democratic Party, following a writ petition filed by him challenging the legality of the proceedings of the case.
An HC bench of Justice Md Ashfaqul Islam and Justice SM Emdadul Hoque yesterday came up with the verdict by rejecting the same writ petition.
Freedom fighter Nurul Islam filed the case with Ramna Police Station on February 15, 2007, accusing Redowan of misappropriating Tk 50 lakh from the fund of Bangladesh Muktijoddha Sangsad during his tenure as state minister of the liberation war affairs.
