The judge slapped the lawyer and threatened to report him to the police when he went to complain about the irregularities in the court proceedings. The lawyers started a commotion in the courtroom. In such a situation, the judge left the courtroom. Later, Chief Justice Syed Refat Ahmed took away the judge's judicial powers when he complained.
The name of the judge who lost judicial power is Ataur Rahman Khan. It is known that at the beginning of the hearing of the case on Tuesday morning (October 15), barrister Ashraf Rahman told the court on behalf of the lawyers that honorable court, the bench officers of your court did not put all the submitted cases in the daily agenda due to irregularities. Many lawyers have been deprived of it.
In reply, Justice Ataur Rahman Khan raised his hand and said, "I was the leader of the bar". Who dared you to speak against my court? Get out of my closet, idiot. I will slap you and give you to the police.
At this time, the lawyer said in the courtroom, I am presenting the matter to you asking for an apology at the beginning. My lord you cannot behave like this.
In response, the judge became furious again. At that time, Justice Ataur Rahman Khan left the courtroom when the lawyers started shouting in the courtroom.
After the incident, when the lawyers complained to the Chief Justice, Chief Justice Syed Refat Ahmed took away the judicial power of that judge. In his place, Justice Kazi Zeenat Haque has been assigned to the bench, sources said. Later, Barrister Ashraf informed the reporters about the matter in a press conference.
