Court disqualifies convicts for polls

Dhaka: Bangladesh’s High Court has disqualified the graft convicts, who were tried under Emergency Power Rules and sentenced to not less than a two-year term, from contesting parliamentary polls.

A two-member High Court Bench issued the judgment which would debar about 75 high-profile politicians, mostly belonging to the BNP and Awami League from contesting the forthcoming December 29 elections.

The Bench comprising judges Nazmun Ara Sultana and M. Rezaul Haque pronounced the verdict. — PTI
