A Dhaka court yesterday rejected bail plea filed by former Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) KM

court.
Earlier on July 1, KM Nurul Huda gave confessional statement in the case. Dhaka Additional Chief
Metropolitan Magistrate Ziadur Rahman recorded Huda's statement under section 164 as the police
produced him before the court after the end of his four-day remand in the case and pleaded to record his
statement.
The court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Awlad Hossain Mohammad Zunayed on June 27 had placed
KM Nurul Huda on a four-day remand in the case. Huda was placed on a four-day remand for the first time in the case on June 23.
