A Dhaka court yesterday ordered BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia and 12 other BNP-Jamaat leaders to appear before it on April 13 in Gatco graft case filed by the Anti Corruption Commission (ACC), reports UNB. Judge Abu Ahmed Jamadar of Dhaka Special Judge's Court-3, passed the order after receiving a copy of a High Court verdict in this connection, said ACC lawyer Mosharaf Hossain Kajal. Earlier on February 15, the High Court ordered Khaleda to surrender before the trial court in two months as the Court (HC) released the full text of its verdict rejecting her two writ petitions filed by the BNP chief challenging the legality of the graft case and its inclusion under the Emergency Powers Act. On August 5 last year, a High Court bench comprising Justice Md Nuruzzaman and Justice Abdur Rob rejected the two writ petitions.
