DHAKA, Bangladesh, March 15 (UPI) -- A hearing on Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus's appeal of a ruling upholding his firing was adjourned for two weeks Tuesday by the Bangladesh Supreme Court.
The appeal relates to a high-court ruling last week upholding the order of the central bank to remove the 70-year-old microfinance pioneer as managing director of the Garmeen Bank, which he had founded and is now 25 percent state-owned.
