A Dhaka court has set December 5 for submission of the probe report in the graft case against former Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Satyabrata Shikdar set the new date as Investigation Officer (IO) in the case and Director of Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), Syed Iqbal Hossain, failed to submit the report on Tuesday.
Bangladesh National Alliance (BNA) Chairman Barrister Nazmul Huda filed the case with Shahbagh Police Station against the former Chief Justice on September 27, 2018.
The plaintiff alleged that the then Chief Justice Sinha, being instigated, changed the verdict of a case against him in spite of the fact that the case was earlier disposed of at the High Court.
Chief Justice Sinha also allegedly demanded Tk 20 billion bribe from Huda to dispose of the case.
