Hearing on bail petition of chief whip's son tomorrow


A Dhaka court will hear a bail petition of Akhter Hamid alias Paban, son of Chief Whip Khondoker Delwar Hossain, tomorrow in an attempt to murder case.

Judge Mohammad Matiur Rahman of the Metropolitan Sessions Judge's Court yesterday issued the order following a criminal appeal filed by the defence lawyers against the rejection order of the lower court.

In the appeal, the defence lawyers also sought ad-interim bail for Paban but the court did not pass any order on the issue.
