Bangladesh court acquits Yunus on appeal, overturns labor conviction: Lawyer

A Bangladeshi court overturned a conviction against Muhammad Yunus, a day before the Nobel winner is set to return to lead a caretaker government.

"The court earlier this year sentenced them to six months in prison," one of his lawyers, Khaja Tanvir Ahmed, told AFP. "The labor court granted an appeal, and acquitted them."
