The Supreme Court fixes August 1 for hearing two appeals filed by BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia seeking stay on the trial proceedings of Zia Charitable Trust corruption case against her.

BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia files a petition with the High Court seeking cancellation of the trial proceedings in Zia Charitable Trust corruption case against her, as a Dhaka court is set to resume the hearing tomorrow.

BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia will likely be skipping tomorrow’s graft hearing of Zia Charitable and Zia Orphanage Trust cases for “illness”.

BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia may appear before a Dhaka court for hearing in two graft cases “if the government provides her with proper security”, her top counsel says.
