The Supreme Court today stayed the High Court orders that prohibited the authorities concerned to evict 24 brick kilns having no valid licence in Chattogram, clearing the way for shutting them down.
Chamber judge of the Appellate Division of the SC, Justice Hasan Foez Siddique, passed the stay orders following eight separate leave to appeal petitions filed by Department of Environment (DoE) challenging the HC orders.
The apex court chamber judge also sent the petitions to its full bench for their detailed hearing on June 21, DoE s lawyer Manzill Murshid told The Daily Star.
