Chittagong,
May 24 (UNB) – The Metropolitan Sessions Judge’s court today
sought clearance from the government for trial of Mayor ABM Mohiuddin
Cwhowdhury who is holding the rank of a cabinet minister.
Mayor
and three employees of the City Corporation were accused in a criminal
case filed by City BNP president Meer Mohammad Nasiruddin last year
for dumping stinking garbage in front of his house causing serious
health hazard.
The
incident took place on October 24, 1999 and the case was filed on
October 26.
The
judge, M Ismail Mia, in an order asked the Home Ministry for clearance
of the government within 60 days. It said the court could not admit
the case without the government clearance.
The
order of the court came today after hearing both sides on May 7 on
written reply of the Mayor to a court notice earlier served on him.
