A Dhaka court has extended the bail of former Jubo League leader Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat in a graft case filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) till October 2.

Judge Monjurul Alam of the Dhaka Special Judge Court-6 passed the order following a short hearing on Monday.

The Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) arrested Samrat along with his associate and also former Jubo League leader Enamul Haque Arman from a village in Cumilla's Chauddagram upazila on October 6, 2019.

On November 12 in the same year, ACC deputy director Md Jahangir Alam filed a case against him for amassing wealth worth around Taka 3 crore beyond his known income sources.

The anti-corruption watchdog submitted a charge sheet against him on November 26, 2020, accusing him of rallying wealth worth over Tk 222.88 crore beyond his known income sources.
