Razzak secured bail from Dhaka’s Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Court on Oct 15 last year but the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) filed a review petition.

After hearing the petition, the High Court issued a rule on Nov 30, asking the authorities concerned to explain why the bail should not be canceled.

Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder and Justice Mohi Uddin Shamim’s virtual bench disposed of the rule and upheld the bail order.

The accused will be on bail until the trial is completed, the court said.

It said Razzak cannot leave the country without the court’s permission. The court can scrap his bail if he is found abusing his bail.
