Hearing of Tarique's case Nov 15
A Dhaka court yesterday adjourned the hearing of a money laundering case against BNP senior vice-chairman Tarique Rahman and his business associate Giasuddin Al Mamun till November 15.
Judge Mohammad Mozammel Hossain of the Special Judge Court-3 of Dhaka passed the order after Mamun's lawyer submitted a time petition on grounds that they could not scrutinise the money laundering related documents seized by the investigation officer.
During the hearing, complainant Mohammad Ibrahim, an assistant director of the Anti-Corruption Commission, was present at the court to face cross-examination by Mamun's lawyer.
On September 11 and October 18, Mohammad Ibrahim gave his deposition before the court and later was partly cross-examined by the defence lawyer.
Mamun was produced before the court yesterday while Tarique remains absent.
On August 8, the court framed money laundering charges against Tarique and Mamun and issued a warrant for arrest of Tarique.
