The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court (SC) yesterday scrapped the High Court’s verdict acquitting former Awami League minister MK Alamgir’s two sons of graft charges, reports UNB. A four-member bench of the Appellate Division, headed by Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha, passed the order disposing of a petition filed by Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). Earlier on November 5, 2008, a special court set up on the Jatiya Sangsad premise sentenced the ruling party leader Alamgir’s two sons—Joy Alamgir and Jalal Alamgir—to three years in jail for not filing their asset details with the anti-graft watchdog. They were also fined Tk 5 lakh in default to suffer one year jail more. On February 15, 2010, the HC acquitted the two siblings of the charges. ACC had appealed against the acquittal verdict in 2012. As one of the two brothers, Jalal—died in 2011 in Thailand, case proceedings against the other will continue, said ACC’s counsel Syed Mamun Mahbub. ACC filed the case on June 26, 2008.
