Govt makes record appointments to strengthen judiciary
  Bangla Press Desk: Following last year’s July Uprising, many law officers appointed during the previous fascist regime fled, disrupting court proceedings nationwide and making it harder for citizens to access justice. The shortage of prosecutors and judges in key cases led to significant delays and frustration for people seeking legal remedies, CA Press Wing said in a statement on Sunday. Over the past year, the government has taken unprecedented steps to address this issue, making the largest number of law officer appointments in the country’s history. A total of 4,889 government law officers have been deployed to courts and tribunals across the nation, alongside 274 new attorneys in the Attorney General’s Office.
New judges and prosecutors have also been appointed to the International Crimes Tribunal, the statement said. In addition, the Ministry of Law facilitated the appointment of the chief justice, five new judges to the Appellate Division, and 23 judges to the High Court Division. Officials say these appointments will enable courts to operate more efficiently, clear case backlogs, and improve access to justice for ordinary citizens. Legal experts believe the move will help restore public confidence in the justice system and create a more active and effective judicial environment, the statement read.
