The Supreme Court will deliver its order tomorrow on a petition that challenged a High Court order clearing the way for Jatiya Party Chairman GM Quader to perform the responsibilities of his post.
A three-member bench of the Appellate Division of the SC headed by Chief Justice Hasan Foez Siddique set the date today after hearing the petition.
Former JP leader Ziaul Haque Mridha filed the petition seeking stay on the HC order.
Following the petition, the SC chamber judge on November 30 stayed the HC order that cleared the way for GM Quader to perform the responsibilities of his post.
Justice M Enayetur Rahim, the apex court chamber judge, also sent the plea to its full bench for further hearing on the matter.
On November 29, the HC bench of Justice Sheikh Abdul Awal stayed till January 3 a Dhaka court directive that on November 16 upheld an injunction order asking GM Quader to refrain from party activities.
Mridha, also a former adviser to the JP chief, was removed from the party on September 17.
Senior lawyer Mohammad Sayeed Ahmed Raza appeared for Ziaul Haque Mridha while senior lawyer Sheikh Muhammed Serajul Islam stood for GM Quader during hearing today.
