The High Court (HC) on Thursday summoned three lawyers, including the president of the Brahmanbaria Bar Association, for indecent behaviour with a judge inside a courtroom in the district.
A High Court division bench comprising Justice JBM Hassan and Justice Razik-Al-Jalil passed the order and issued a contempt of court rule against the three.
The three lawyers are- Brahmanbaria Bar Association President Adv Md Tanvir Bhuiyan, secretary (admin) Adv Md Akkas Ali, and Adv Zubayer Islam.
Deputy Attorney General Tushar Kanti Roy said the High Court asked the three to appear before it on January 17 and submit their explanation.
Judge Mohammad Faruk of Brahmanbaria Women and Children Repression Prevention Tribunal-1 on January 2 sent a letter to the Supreme Court Registrar General for taking action against the three for their indecent behaviour with him.
The registrar general produced the letter before the Chief Justice, and the High Court bench was designated by him to dispose of the matter.
