Former Chief Justice A B M Khairul Haque has been granted bail in two more cases. The order was issued on Tuesday, May 12, by a High Court bench comprising Justice K M Zahid Sarwar Kajol and Justice Sheikh Abu Taher. Earlier, the Appellate Division upheld his bail in five other cases filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) and related to the July Movement and alleged verdict forgery.
Khairul Haque was arrested on July 24 of the previous year from his Dhanmondi residence and shown arrested in a murder case involving a Jubo Dal activist during the July Movement. Several other cases were filed against him, including one on August 27 over alleged forgery of a caretaker government verdict and another ACC case on August 4 concerning plot-related corruption. After lower courts denied bail, he sought relief from the High Court, which issued rules and later granted bail in multiple cases.
The Appellate Division, led by the Chief Justice, rejected the state’s appeal to suspend his bail on April 28. However, Haque was later shown arrested in two additional murder cases filed at Jatrabari and Mirpur police stations.
