The case names former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina among 17 individuals. The decision was made on Tuesday by Acting Judge Mohammad Alamgir of the Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge Court. The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) is investigating the matter. Details of the investigation were not immediately available, but the court expects a report outlining the findings by the set date. The allegations center around potential misconduct in the awarding and management of the toll collection agreement for the significant bridge infrastructure. This development marks a formal step towards a potential trial related to the contract.
