During a recent hearing on three writ petitions filed by victims of fraud by e-commerce entities in Bangladesh, the High Court has expressed its displeasure as the authorities concerned, failed to submit reports on steps they have taken against money laundering by e-commerce entities as well the policy to collect tax and VAT from the firms on time.
According to media reports, the High Court bench of Justice Md. Mostafizur Rahman and M. Enayetur Rahim expressed their dissatisfaction in this regard while, reportedly, underlining that the High Court would take the matter seriously as the Government bodies concerned did not respond to the notice issued by it even as the bench, reportedly, asked the Deputy Attorney General to inform the Attorney General of the same while also setting the next date of hearing, which is on 23 November.
The High Court also, reportedly, extended the time for submission of the reports till then.
