Bangabandhu Murder Case
HC bench skips passing order in writ challenging govt inaction
Bdnews, Dhaka
A High Court bench yesterday declined to pass any order in a writ petition filed challenging the government's inaction in arresting the convicted accused in Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman murder case. Advocate Manzil Murshid, a Supreme Court lawyer, filed the writ petition challenging the inaction of the government with an appeal to direct the government to bring back home the six convicted accused now staying abroad. Advocate Manzil made the petition 'not-press' in that bench comprising Justice Awlad Ali and Justice Zinat Ara. He told BDNEWS that he could further submit the petition before another bench of the High Court. "After hearing the petition, the High Court bench declined to pass any order in the case on the plea that an appeal regarding the case has been pending in the Appellate Division. That is why I made the petition 'not-press' in that bench. I will mention the matter in another bench," he said.
