Bangladesh's Muhammad Yunus loses appeal against sacking

AFP, Dhaka, April 5: Bangladesh's Supreme Court on Tuesday dismissed Nobel-winning Muhammad Yunus's final appeal against a central bank order sacking him from the microfinance bank he founded, Yunus's lawyer told AFP.

"The appeal has been dismissed by the Supreme Court," Tamin Husain Shawan said.

Yunus, 70, was removed from his position as managing director of Grameen Bank on March 2 but defied the order, returning to work and lodging a legal case challenging his dismissal.
