The High Court on Monday will pass its orders on bail petitions filed by BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in three cases.
A bench of Justice AKM Asaduzzaman and Justice JBM Hasan fixed the date after hearing on the petitions Sunday.
Attorney General Mahbubey Alam said the court fixed Monday for passing orders on the bail pleas in three cases of which two were filed in Cumilla on charge of plotting to carry out subversive acts and another in Narail on charge of defamation.
Earlier, on May 24, the HC fixed Sunday for hearing the bail petitions filed by the BNP chief.
On May 19, the HC granted permission to Khaleda for filing the bail petitions after her lawyers sought for it.
The Appellate Division earlier on May 18 upheld the High Court order that had granted bail to convicted BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in Zia Orphanage Trust graft case.
However, the BNP chief was not freed from jail as Khaleda was shown arrested in the cases filed with different police stations in Cumilla, Dhaka, Narail and Panchagarh.
The BNP chairperson is now facing a total of 36 cases.
