The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court (SC) today ordered two then directors of International Leasing and Financial Service Basudeb Banerjee and his wife Papia Banerjee, alleged associates of Prasanta Kumar Halder alias PK Halder, to surrender before a trial court within June 4.
An Appellate Division bench headed by Justice M Enayetur Rahim passed the order, disposing of a plea of Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), reports BSS.
A High Court division bench on May 9 granted them six-week anticipatory bail, making the ACC appeal against the order with the Appellate Division.
The Appellate Division chamber judge court on May 13 stayed the High Court bail order and asked the two accused to surrender before trial court within two weeks. The defence, however, pleaded for adjusting and subsequently withdrawing the chamber court order.
