SC stays HC bail of Manna
The Appellate Division of Supreme Court stayed a High Court order till October 30 that had granted bail to Nagorik Oikyo Convener Mahmudur Rahman Manna in a sedition case.
A five-member of SC bench headed by Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha on Sunday passed the order following a petition filed by the government seeking a stay on the HC judgment.
Manna was arrested on February 24 in 2015, a day after his telephone conversation with BNP leader Sadeque Hossain Khoka, was leaked.
