Hearing on Khaleda’s bail pleas in 2 cases adjourned

Staff Correspondent: The High Court on Tuesday adjourned until Wednesday the hearing on two petitions filed by BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia seeking bail in two cases.

An HC bench of Justice AKM Asaduzzaman and Justice JBM Hassan passed the order after partially hearing the petitions.

Earlier, on Monday, the HC deferred the hearing on the petitions filed by the BNP chairperson's lawyers for Tuesday.

One of the cases was filed in Cumilla on charge of plotting to carry out subversive acts and another in Narail on charge of defamation, said BNP Legal Affairs Secretary Advocate Kaisar Kamal.
