The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed the High Court (HC) order allowing Jatiya Party (JP) Chairman GM Quader to perform the duties of his post.
Chamber Judge of the Appellate Division M Enayetur Rahim passed the order following an appeal against the HC order, reports UNB.
The court also stayed the HC order till Monday for hearing in the full bench.
With this order, the restriction on the activities of GM Quader as party chairman has been upheld, said plaintiff’s counsel Barrister Sayed Ahmed Raja.
Earlier on Tuesday, HC cleared the way for GM Quader to perform his duties as Jatiya Party Chairman by staying the lower court embargo till January 3 following a revision petition.
On October 4, Jatiya Party's suspended leader and former lawmaker Ziaul Haque Mridha filed the case against GM Quader.
