Zia Charitable Trust Graft Case

Court asks Khaleda to appear for sixth time

A Dhaka court yesterday asked BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia, for the sixth time, to appear before it in the Zia charitable trust graft case. She has to appear on September 16.
The order was passed after Khaleda's lawyer submitted a petition seeking adjournment of the charge framing hearing, stating that Khaleda could not appear due to a party meeting.
The case was filed against Khaleda and three others -- Khaleda's former political secretary Harris Chowdhury, his assistant private secretary (APS) Ziaul Islam Munna and former Dhaka City Corporation mayor Sadeque Hossain Khoka's APS Monirul Islam Khan.
Harris is absconding while the remaining two, now on bail, were present yesterday. Anti-Corruption Commission on August 8, 2011 filed the case with Tejgaon police accusing the four of abusing power to raise funds in the name of the trust.
