Due to the lack of accurate and complete information regarding these cases, it is not being possible to take legal remedial action. So it is very important to obtain information on the cases as per the table mentioned in the letter on an urgent basis,\u201d the letter said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As per the letter, the government law officers were asked to prepare the list with the name of concerned district, court, case number, name and identification of the complainant, number of accused and number of unnamed accused (if there is any), date of the incident narrated in the complaint, under which section and act the concerned case was filed and which stage that case is in now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe public prosecutors and metropolitan public prosecutors were asked to exercise extreme caution in this regard. It is to be noted that the lists of those cases will be thoroughly scrutinized by the ministry,\u201d Dr Karim said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ministry in the letters asked the public prosecutors to send the list to the address of Solicitor, Solicitor Wing, Law and Justice Division, Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Ministry, Supreme Court Premises, or by email on solicitor@lawjusticediv.gov.bd .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
