Doctored Result
Ctg Bar to take action against 10 more lawyers
Staff Correspondent, Ctg
Chittagong Bar Association (CBA) will ask Bangladesh Bar Council to take necessary action against 10 more Chittagong-based lawyers that it finds to have allegedly doctored the LLB mark sheets.A general meeting of Chittagong Bar last month decided to send the list of those lawyers to Bangladesh Bar Council, the statutory body of law practitioners that is responsible for taking action against professional misconduct of lawyers. Earlier on November 8 this year, the CBA sent a list of 30 lawyers, accused of tampering with results, to the Bar Council in Dhaka for taking necessary action against them. President of Chittagong Bar Advocate Ibrahim Hossain Babul yesterday told The Daily Star, " We will soon send the second list that we've prepared through investigations." "We are ready to comply with the Bar Council's decision regarding those lawyers," he added. The bar president said though abstained from practice, the accused lawyers come to the courts regularly. The CBA initiated investigations after a certificate scandal involving High Court Judge Faisal Mahmud Faizee and 110 other lawyers had broken raising widespread criticism.
