Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) AKM Nurul Huda on February 19 said that Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Chairperson Khaleda Zia, who was jail on February 8 for five years in a graft case, cannot contest the next general election in the present context, reports The Daily Star. But if she moves an appeal before the Supreme Court (SC) against her conviction and the court permit her to contest the election, she can run the election, he said. He said the SC has two separate verdicts over the issue. One judgment said if anybody is convicted and sentenced to two or more years' in jail by the lower court for moral turpitude, he or she can contest the election until the appeal is not settled by the apex court. In another judgment, the apex court said a convict cannot contest the election, the CEC said. Now, it depends on SC whether she can contest the election, he added.

Industries Minister Amir Hossain Amu stated on February 28 that the government has taken a tough stance against the funding of militancy and started identifying the persons involved with the racket, reports The Daily Star. “Our intelligence units have increased vigilance whether remittance is being used to fund militancy. Bangladesh Bank and intelligence units are monitoring all the suspicious transactions,” he said.The government is working to trace the origin of militant funding, he said. “Three types of people fund militancy -- the militant, a supporter of militancy and an empathiser of militancy,” he said. The government is also checking fake currency and monitoring courier services. The border security has also been heightened. The intelligence agencies are also investigating couriers, online transactions and suspicious telephone conversations, Amu said. The minister said according to the direction of Bangladesh Bank, the authorities of the banks have to inform the intelligence units if they find any inconsistency in transactions. The minister also asked the banks to follow rules during money transactions. Amu also said a nine-member committee has been formed to monitor inconsistency in transactions. There was a rise in militancy in the country but the government successfully controlled it, he added.

A Dhaka Court on February 28 once again asked detectives to submit by April 4, 2018, the probe report of a case filed against Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Chairperson Khaleda Zia and 13 others over a crude bomb attack on the shipping minister's procession on February 16, 2015, reports The Daily Star. Metropolitan Magistrate Nurunnahar Yasmin passed the order after Inspector of the Detective Branch (DB) of Police Fazlul Haque, also the investigation officer, failed to submit any probe report by February 28. A labour leader, Ismail Hossain Bachchu, filed the case with Gulshan Police Station on the day of the attack, accusing Khaleda as the mastermind. At least eight people were hurt in the crude bomb blast at the capitals' Gulshan-2 when a procession, led by Shipping Minister Shajahan Khan, was marching towards Khaleda's Gulshan office to lay siege to it protesting at the countrywide blockades and hartals. Khaleda, now on bail in the case (February 16, 2015, blast case), was sentenced to five years' imprisonment on February 8, 2018, in the Zia Orphanage Trust graft case. She is now in jail.
