The investigation officer (IO) in a case lodged against 17 people, including ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her sister Sheikh Rehana, over irregularities in the allocation of Rajuk plots, on Sunday submitted her deposition.
Assistant Director of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) Afnan Jannat Keya submitted her deposition at Dhaka Special Judge Court-4 and was later cross-examined by the defence. As the cross-examination remained incomplete till the end of today's proceedings, Judge Robiul Alam adjourned the hearing until 18 November.
Earlier in the day, the defence finished cross-examining complainant and ACC deputy director Salahuddin.
According to the case documents, ACC deputy director Salahuddin filed the case on 13 January 2025 against 15 people, including Sheikh Hasina, Sheikh Rehana, Radwan Mujib Siddique, Tulip Siddique, and Azmina Siddique. The IO, after probing, filed the charge-sheet against 17 on 10 March.
