SC extends stay on graft case against Moudud
The Supreme Court yesterday extended till October 18 its earlier order that stayed the trial proceedings of a corruption case against BNP leader Moudud Ahmed.
On September 16, 2007, the Anti-Corruption Commission filed the case accusing Moudud of amassing wealth worth more than Tk 7.38 crore illegally and concealing information about wealth of more than Tk 4.4 crore.
The SC's Appellate Division passed the order after a petition filed by Moudud yesterday seeking extension of its chamber judge's order that stayed the proceedings on October 9.
The Division also asked Moudud to file a leave-to-appeal petition with it by October 18 against a HC verdict.
