BNP leader Gaus denied bail
The High Court yesterday summarily rejected a bail petition of Golam Kibria Gaus, a BNP leader and Habiganj municipality mayor, in the case filed for the murder of former finance minister SAMS Kibria.
The court passed the rejection order on the ground that a Speedy Trial Tribunal of Sylhet has been running trial proceedings of the case and it might be finished soon, M Masud Rana, a lawyer for Gaus, told The Daily Star.
The lawyer said his client will decide on moving an appeal before the Supreme Court against the HC order after obtaining the copy of full order.
Meanwhile, the Speedy Trial Tribunal of Sylhet deferred till August 10 the hearing on charge framing against Lutfozzaman Babar and suspended mayor of Sylhet City Corporation Ariful Haque Chowdhury in the Kibria murder case, reports our Moulvibazar correspondent.
