A Dhaka court Thursday set August 28 for holding hearing on charge framing in a graft case against former Jubo League leader Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat.
Thursday was fixed for holding hearing on the matter, but Judge Manjurul Alam of Dhaka Special Judge Court 6 deferred the date, allowing a time plea of the accused. The court also extended the bail term of Samrat till the next date of hearing.
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on November 12, 2019, filed the case against Samrat for amassing illegal wealth of Taka 2.94 crore. The anti-graft body filed charge-sheet on November 26, 2020, and on March 22, 2022, the court took the charge-sheet into cognizance.
Earlier on October 7, 2019, Rapid Action Battalion (RAB)-1 filed two cases under arms and narcotics acts against Samrat with Ramna Police Station, making former Dhaka South unit Jubo League vice-president Enamul Haque Arman co-accused in the narcotics case.
RAB on early October 6, 2019, arrested Samrat and his associate Arman from village Kunja Sreepur of Alkora union under Chauddagram upazila of Cumilla district.
