HC observes Staff Correspondent Staff Correspondent
A High Court bench yesterday observed that it is not possible to eradicate corruption and money laundering without cooperation from all. We all must work with patriotism and honesty for the development of the country, the bench of Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder and Justice Mohi Uddin Shamim said while hearing a petition and four appeals seeking bail in five corruption cases.
One of the cases was filed over the misappropriation of Tk 13 lakh from the lease of six Kheya Ghats (boat stations) in Satkhira for the last 10 years.
The High Court yesterday said it would not allow any "pick and choose policy" of the Anti-Corruption Commission. "It seems from the activities of the commission that it implicates people according to its wish. We will not allow the commission's such pick and choose policy in any manner," said the HC bench of Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder and Justice Mohi Uddin Shamim. It
