A Dhaka court yesterday fixed April 11 for hearing on charge framing against detained former state minister for home affairs Lutfozzaman Babar in a tax evasion case.

Judge Nasiruddin Mahmud of the Special Judge Court-5 fixed the date following a time petition submitted by a counsel of Babar.

Meanwhile, another Dhaka court yesterday asked the Criminal Investigation Department to submit by May 2 the probe report of the Bashundhara bribery case filed against Babar and three others.

Metropolitan Magistrate MA Salam passed the order as Assistant Superintendent of CID and investigation officer of the case Syed Momin Hossain failed to submit the report to the court on the day.

On February 14, Judge ANM Bashir Ullah of the Senior Special Judge's Court issued an arrest warrant against Babar hours after a National Bureau of Revenue filed the case against him on charges of dodging Tk 2.65 crore income tax from 1999-2000 to 2008-09 fiscal years.
