The Supreme Court's Appellate Division on Sunday dismissed the leave to appeal petition filed by BNP-nominated candidate Manjurul Ahsan Munshi to regain his candidacy in the Cumilla-4 constituency in the 13th national parliamentary election.

Now, he will not be able to contest the polls, said lawyers.

Manjurul was the rival of National Citizen Party (NCP) nominee candidate Hasnat Abdullah in this seat.

The order was issued by the full bench of the Appellate Division, headed by the Chief Justice Zubayer Rahman Chowdhury.
