Hearing on Bijoy TV case deferred again
Hearing on Bijoy TV scam case involving Chittagong City Corporation (CCC) Mayor ABM Mohiuddin Chowdhury and others was deferred for the fourth time yesterday, as the gazette notification about an absconding accused was not issued.
Chittagong Divisional Special Judge SM Solaiman fixed January 1 as the new date for the hearing.
Mayor Mohiuddin Chowdhury and CCC Chief Executive Officer Imtiaz Hossain Chowdhury, both are accused in the case, were produced before the court in the morning.
The court deferred the hearing as the gazette notification about the absconding accused, CCC Chief Engineer Mokhter Alam, was not issued as of yesterday.
On Tuesday evening, Mayor Mohiuddin was brought to Chittagong Central Jail from Dhaka, sources said.
Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) filed the case on May 27 and submitted charge sheet against the three accused on November 22 for launching Bijoy TV, a private channel, without prior permission from the government.
