Koko's Case
Hearing Oct 11
A Dhaka court yesterday deferred a hearing on charge framing of a tax evasion case against Arafat Rahman Koko, the youngest son of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia until October 11.
This is the 19th time the court accepted time petition of Koko,
His lawyer had earlier filed a writ petition with the High Court (HC) challenging the legality of the case. The HC is yet to deliver a verdict on the matter.
After a hearing on June 9 last year, the HC issued a rule upon the government to explain why the proceedings of the case should not be declared illegal.
But the hearing on the rule is still pending.
