On Tuesday, the bench issued a ‘divided’ order on the petition. Justice Syed Refaat Ahmed issued a rule with a directive to the Election Commission to accept Khaleda’s nomination. “The Election Commission has become an inactive entity. We came to the High Court expecting justice to be served,” said Barrister Kaisar Kamal, a member of Khaleda’s legal team. Khaleda appealed the decision with the Election Commission, but her petition was rejected.
