A Dhaka court has set December 1 for delivering the verdict in a graft case filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) against former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, her sister Sheikh Rehana, and 15 others over alleged irregularities in the allocation of a 10-katha plot in the Purbachal New Town Project. The decision came after Judge Rabiul Alam of Dhaka Special Judge Court-4 concluded the arguments on Tuesday. The case, filed on January 13 this year by ACC Deputy Director Salahuddin, accuses the defendants of abusing power and committing forgery in the plot allocation process. Following investigation, ACC Assistant Director Afnan Jannat Keya submitted a charge sheet on March 10 against 17 individuals, including several former government officials and a former state minister. The court framed charges on July 31, and 32 witnesses testified during the trial. Among the accused, former RAJUK member Khurshid Alam remains in custody.
