Rules High Court
Staff Correspondent
The High Court yesterday upheld the decision of Biman Bangladesh Airlines terminating its director Aminul Huq. The court, however, declared Biman's decision to send another director Syed Khaja Zunayed to forced retirement illegal. An HC bench of Justice Farah Mahbub and Justice Farid Ahmed also asked the authorities to give retirement benefits to Aminul Huq in accordance with law. The bench delivered the verdict following two separate writ petitions filed by Aminul and Zunayed challenging the Biman authorities' decisions in September last year. Advocates Mahbubey Alam, Khandker Diliruzzaman and Ekramul Haque appeared for Biman authorities while Barrister Rokanuddin Mahmud and Barrister Mustafizur Rahman Khan argued for the petitioners.
