A contempt of court case has been filed against seven judges of the Appellate Division, including three former chief justices.
Advocate Yunus Ali Akand of the Supreme Court filed the case in the relevant branch of the High Court on Wednesday.
The three former Chief Justices are Syed Mahmud Hossain, Hasan Foez Siddique and Obaidul Hasan. Besides, four other former judges of the Appellate Division are Syed Iman Ali, Mirza Hussain Haider, Abu Bakar Siddiqui and Mohammad Nuruzzaman.
The plaintiff alleged that on 27 September 2020, judges abused their power and punished Supreme Court lawyer Yunus Ali Akand without allowing him the opportunity of self-defense, a clear violation of the law of contempt of court. At that time he was banned from handling cases for three months.
