Hearing against Sayedee Nov 10
A Dhaka court yesterday fixed November 10 for hearing on charge framing against detained Jamaat-e-Islami Nayeb-e-Ameer Delwar Hossain Sayedee in connection with a tax evasion case.
After hearing both the sides, Judge Mohammad Zohurul Hoque of the Senior Special Judge's Court passed the order with Saydee on the dock.
The court also shifted the case to the Special Judge's Court-3 for its trial.
The court also fixed the same date for hearing on the bail petition submitted by Sayedee's lawyers.
The National Board of Revenue (NBR) filed the case against Sayedee for evading income tax on August 19 this year.
In the case statement, Masuma Khatun, deputy tax commissioner of NBR, said Sayedee, former Jamaat lawmaker, evaded Tk 56.45 lakh as income tax from 2005-06 fiscal year to 2009-10 fiscal year and provided false information repeatedly to misguide the NBR.
Earlier on June 29 this year, Sayedee was arrested after a Dhaka court issued an arrest warrant against him in connection with a case filed for hurting religious sentiment of Muslims.
