The High Court is expected to deliver its judgment on three bail petitions in three cases filed against BNP acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on November 16.
Completing the rules hearing which were issued over the petitions in three arson and vandalism cases, the High Court bench of Justice Md Rezaul Haque and Justice Md Khashruzzaman fixed the date yesterday.
On June 21, the High Court had granted ad interim bail to the BNP leader and issued separate three rules asking the government as to why he should not be granted regular bail in the cases.
The Supreme Court on July 13 gave him six weeks’ bail on medical ground. His bail was extended two times.
On November 2, the Appellate Division asked him to surrender before a trial court rejecting his plea of bail extension in those cases filed with Paltan police station on January 4, 5 and 6.
It also directed the High Court bench to hear and dispose of the rules in two weeks.
The next day, the Metropolitan Magistrate concerned had sent Fakhrul to jail on his surrender.
