A court on Wednesday fined a councillor of the Sylhet City Corporation Tk 6 lakh and awarded him one year's simple imprisonment in a case filed for cheque dishonour. Joint district judge-III of Sylhet Sheikh Ashrafur Rahman pronnounced the judgment. As AZM Abdullah, a trader of the city filed case against the SCC councilor of ward 14, a lower court in Sylhet in 2009 granted bail to Abdur Rahman Mihad on condition of immediate payment of the claimed amount of Tk 3 lakh. But getting the bail the councilor neither complied with the court decision nor appeared in the court.
