Charge framing hearing in coalmine graft case against Khaleda on Dec 3

Shawdesh desk:

A court in Dhaka on Tuesday set December 3 for holding hearing on charge framing in the Barapukuria Coalmine graft case against Bangladesh Nationalist Party chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia and nine others.

The date was announced by Judge Md Akhtaruzzaman of Dhaka Special Judge Court-2, as the defence lawyers pleaded for time on Begum Zia’s poor health ground.

The Anti-Corruption Commission on February 26, 2008, filed the graft case against Khaleda Zia and 15 others with Shahbagh Police Station.

ACC deputy director Md Abul Kashem Fokir on October 5, 2008, filed a charge-sheet in the case.

They were accused of causing a loss of around Tk 159 crore to the state exchequer by awarding a contract for operation of Barapukuria Coalmine to a Chinese company through abuse of power.
