HC summons three BCBL officials
The High Court yesterday summoned three high officials of Bangladesh Commerce Bank Ltd (BCBL) including its chairman for not complying with a HC order for serving notices to an elected director of the bank for attending its board meetings.
BCBL Chairman Yousuf Ali Howlader, its Managing Director Abu Sadek Md Sohel and its Secretary Md Saiful Islam have been asked to appear before the HC at 10:30am on November 10.
The HC also issued a rule upon the three BCBL officials to explain why proceedings of the contempt of court should not be initiated against them.
The court came up with the order after hearing a contempt of court petition filed by the elected director Zakir Hossain.
Following a previous petition filed by Zakir, the HC on September 9 ordered the three to serve notices to Zakir so that he can attend all the board meetings and to inform the HC after complying with the order through swearing an affidavit on September 14, said Zakir's lawyer citing from the petition.
