Therefore, the bail granted by the High Court is valid; there’s no legal barrier to his release,” Monsurul told bdnews24.com. A High Court bench of Justice Obaidul Hassan and Justice AKM Zahirul Hoque granted six months’ bail to Latif Siddique on Nov 4. The Chamber Court forwarded the appeal to the regular bench fixing Nov 11 for the hearing date on Nov 11. On Nov 11, the top court heard the ACC's appeal and stayed the bail order before scheduling the verdict for Sunday.
