Supreme Court to Verdict on Jamaat Registration on Sunday

The Appellate Division of the Bangladesh Supreme Court (SC) is scheduled to deliver its verdict on Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami's appeal on Sunday to regain its registration as a political party.

The long-awaited judgment has been placed as item number one on Sunday's cause list by a four-member Appellate Division bench, headed by Chief Justice Dr Syed Refaat Ahmed.

Earlier, the court concluded hearings on the appeal on May 14, following four days of detailed proceedings.

Barrister Ehsan Abdullah Siddiqui and Advocate Mohammad Shishir Monir represented Jamaat-e-Islami in court, while lawyer Touhidul Islam appeared on behalf of the Election Commission.
