The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on Monday filed a petition to the High Court seeking cancellation of former Jubo League leader Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat's bail in a graft case.
After getting permission from the court this morning, the anti-graft body filed the petition.
An HC bench of Justice Md Nazrul Islam Talukder and Justice Khijir Hayaat is likely to hear the petition.
Three days after being released on bail from jail, expelled Jubo League leader Samrat staged a show-down appearing in public on Friday (August 26).
Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) arrested Samrat from Cumilla for his involvement in illegal gambling racket on October 6, 2019.
RAB conducted a raid on Samrat's office in Kakrail's Bhuiyan Trade Centre and recovered a foreign pistol, yaba tablets, bottles of foreign liquor, and two kangaroo hides.
A mobile court handed Samrat a six-month jail sentence for possession of the kangaroo skins under the Wild Animal Protection Act.
He was sent to Dhaka Central Jail in Keraniganj.
Later, two more cases were filed against him with Ramna Police Station, under the Narcotics Control Act and Arms Act.
He was released on August 22 after securing bail in all four cases.
