Bogra Judge
Stay on HC order sought
A petition was filed with the Appellate Division yesterday seeking stay on a High Court order that prohibited the district and sessions judge of Bogra to perform judicial functions for dismissing a sensational murder case on the basis of an out-of-court settlement.
The petition also prayed to the Appellate Division to stay the HC order for suspending public prosecutor of Bogra district and sessions judge's court Abdul Matin, its Additional Public Prosecutor Khoda Box and Assistant Public Prosecutor Khairul Bashar.
District and Sessions Judge Mofizul Islam, Matin, Khoda Box and Bashar jointly filed the petition, Deputy Attorney General ABM Altaf Hossain told The Daily Star.
He said the Appellate Division may hear the petition today.
