Khoka bailed in arson case
A Dhaka court on August 2 granted permanent bail to former Dhaka City Corporation mayor Sadeque Hossain Khoka accused in an arson case. The case was filed with Tejgaon Police Station against 46 opposition leaders for torching a bus near the Prime Minister's Office during hartal hours on April 29. Metropolitan magistrate Harun-or-Rashid granted the bail on after Khoka surrendered before his court. Earlier on Tuesday, the same court rejected his bail petition and issued an arrest warrant against him as he was absent during the charge framing hearing in the case. The Dhaka court set August 7 for the beginning of trial of forty-six opposition leaders, including BNP acting Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, in the same case. -The Daily Star online edition August 02 2012.

HC stays Buet agitation, strike
The High Court on August 31 issued an injunction against the ongoing agitation and strike by Buet teachers, employees and students to help the engineering institution run its academic functions smoothly. It also directed the inspector general of police (IGP) and Dhaka Metropolitan Police commissioner to ensure that law and order was maintained on the campus of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (Buet). The injunction came after a hearing on a writ petition filed by Eunus Ali Akond, a lawyer of the Supreme Court. He filed the petition on Sunday as public interest litigation seeking directives on the Buet authorities to resume classes within 24 hours. The court order will remain in force until disposal of a rule attached to it, Additional Attorney General MK Rahman told The Daily Star. The HC issued the rule upon the government authorities and Buet to explain in four weeks why the agitation and strike should not be declared illegal. The education secretary, VC and pro-VC of Buet, IGP, DMP commissioner, president and secretary of Buet Teachers' Association were made respondents to the rule.- The Daily Star August 01 2012.
HC scraps Mamun's 10-yr jail
The High Court on July 30 scrapped the 10-year jail sentence against Giasuddin Al Mamun in a corruption case filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission adjudging the conviction against him illegal. The court also acquitted Mamun's wife Shahina Yeasmin, who was sentenced to three years' imprisonment in the same case. Earlier on March 27, 2008, a special court had sentenced Mamun, a close aide to BNP leader Tarique Rahman, 10 years and his wife to three years of rigorous imprisonment in the case filed on charge of amassing wealth worth Tk 111.3 crore illegally. The HC bench of Justice A K M Asaduzzaman and Justice Abu Taher Md Saifur Rahman delivered the verdict following two separate appeals filed by Mamun and his wife. The court acquitted Mamun off the charges, as Delwar Hossain, former secretary of ACC who had issued a notification to Mamun on February 18, 2007, asking for his wealth statement, was not authorised to do so. The conviction against Mamun was proven illegal as the corruption case filed against him was based on that illegal notice, the court said.- The Daily Star July 31 2012.
HC directed DoE
The High Court on July 30 directed the Department of Environment (DoE) not to issue any environment and site clearance certificates to Hallmark Group for establishing an industrial park in Savar for the next four months. In response to a writ petition, the court ordered the business group authorities to stop for the same period any kind of earth-filling in Kandibaliarpur, Nandankhali, Jamur, Muchipara and Vopri moujas of Savar upazila for establishing the industrial park. A little known Hallmark Group had started setting up the park on a 100-bigha plot of land in the moujas, which were identified as agricultural and rural residential areas in the master plan of Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (Rajuk), according to the petition. The HC also stayed for four months the environment ministry's decision to waive Tk 36 lakh from a penalty of Tk 40 lakh slapped on the company by the DoE.- The Daily Star July 31 2012.
