The High Court today upheld orders of a lower court that asked Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) to freeze bank accounts and seize documents of properties of former lawmaker AKMA Awal and his wife in two corruption cases.
The bench of Justice M Enayetur Rahim and Justice Sardar Md Rashed Jahangir, summarily rejected two separate appeals filed by Awal and his wife Laila Parvin challenging orders of a Dhaka court, on the ground that they were much late in filing the appeals.
