SC to hear ACC appeal on Sunday challenging ex-judge Joynul's bail
The Supreme Court yesterday fixed Sunday for hearing an appeal filed against a High Court order that granted bail to its (SC) former judge Joynul Abedin in connection with a notice issued by the Anti-Corruption Commission in 2010 seeking his bank statements.
Chamber judge of the Appellate Division of the SC Justice Syed Mahmud Hossan set the date after holding a brief hearing on the appeal filed by the ACC challenging the HC order.
Justice Joynul headed the one-man judicial enquiry into the grenade attack on an Awami League rally at Dhaka's Bangabandhu Avenue on August 21, 2004. His probe report found "foreign enemy link" with the attack. The HC on July 10 this year granted anticipatory bail to Joynul in connection with the ACC notice.
