Court issues injunction on JCD council

A Dhaka court today issued an ad interim injunction on holding the council of Bangladesh Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD), the student front of BNP, on September 14.

Judge Nusrat Jahan Bithi of the fourth assistant judge’s court of Dhaka passed the order after Md Aman Ullah Aman, a former assistant religious affairs secretary of JCD, filed a case seeking a permanent injunction on the holding the council.

In his plaint, Aman Ullah said that he had earlier purchased a nomination form for contesting for the post of the president of JCD but the election commission of the council cancelled his nomination paper without any reasonable ground. 

After hearing the case, the court also asked BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Almagir and nine others who cancelled the nomination of Aman to appear before it and submit a written objection to the injunction order in next seven days, Advocate Masud Ahmed Talukder, a pro-BNP lawyer, told The Daily Star.

He also said the injunction order reached to the BNP office around 8:00pm today.
