The Appellate Division delivered its verdict on Wednesday on two appeals against the High Court’s bail order. Attorney General Mahbubey Alam said the state will take preparation as soon as possible for the High Court hearing. Asked to comment on Khaleda’s four-month bail, he said: “The four months will be counted from the day when the court granted her bail. The High Court on Mar 12 granted an interim bail to Khaleda who was jailed on Feb 8 after a trial court convicted her. Later, the Anti-Corruption Commission and the government challenged the High Court order, taking their appeals to the Appellate Division.
