DHAKA, Nov 12, 2024 (BSS) - The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court (SC)
today barred appointing a receiver for Beximco Pharmaceuticals Ltd as it
stayed part of the High Court (HC) order passed in this regard.
 
"Disposed of, stay," said the order passed by the three-member apex court
bench headed by Justice Md Ashfaqul Islam.

of Companies. Until the rule is disposed of, the appointment of a receiver
for Beximco Pharmaceuticals Ltd will remain stayed.
 
The High Court order on appointing a receiver to manage the other companies
of Beximco Group and attach their properties will, however, be maintained.
 
Senior Advocate Masood R Sobhan took part in the hearing for a writ petition
filed in this regard while Advocate Fida M Kamal and Barrister Mostafizur
Rahman Khan argued for Beximco Pharmaceuticals Ltd. Advocate Md Moniruzzaman
stood for Bangladesh Bank (BB).
 
The High Court on September 5 ordered to appoint a receiver to conduct the
functions of the Beximco Group of Companies.
