A Dhaka court has summoned deposed prime minister Sheikh Hasina, her family members, and several former officials of her administration to appear in six cases over alleged corruption involving plot allocations. Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) Prosecutor Mir Ahmed Ali Salam said on Sunday evening that the court had earlier instructed the publication of the gazette notices, which have now been issued by the BG Press. The gazette was signed by Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Md Zakir Hossain Galib. “The court has scheduled July 20 for a hearing in these six cases. If the accused fail to appear before the court by then, the trial will proceed in their absence,” Salam said.
