Interim president for Mohammedan!
Appointing an independent interim president, a High Court bench recently passed an order to hold the suspended annual general meeting (AGM) of Mohammedan SC Ltd, Mohammedan director-in-charge Lokman Hossain Bhuiyan said yesterday.
“The honorable court has appointed Supreme Court Bar Association president AM Amin Uddin as president in order to conduct Mohammedan’s suspended AGM following the appeal that I filed some two-and-half year ago,” Bhuiyan told The Daily Star yesterday, just a week after Mohammedan and five other clubs were hit by the casino scandal.
Bhuiyan added that the court passed the order on August 28 and it was revealed last Monday.
However, AM Amin Uddin is not aware that he has been made president.
“I have not been appointed as president. The information I have gathered today [Wednesday], is that, on an application for condonation in delay of holding the AGM, the court passed an order for holding the AGM with an independent person in the chair. But no order of the hon’ble court has yet been received by me,” he said.
The tenure of current board of directors ended in 2013. The board of directors tried to hold the elections and AGM in 2015 but could not do it due to a case filed by MSC member Riazuddin. The current body is running Mohammedan after taking time the joint stock exchange.
