Mahbub blames law minister for current political unrest

The Supreme Court Bar Association president,  Khandker Mahbub Hossain, has blamed the law minister, Shafique Ahmed, for the current restive political situation in the country.

Addressing a press briefing on Thursday, he said the law minister had confused the prime minister providing her with wrong information about the Supreme Court judgment on non-party caretaker government system under the 13th amendment of the constitution.

The SCBA president said although the Supreme Court judgment had declared the 13th amendment as void but it kept the option open for holding next two general elections under the caretaker system to avert political disorder.

'But the law minister wrongly placed the matter before the prime minister, ignoring the later operative part the SC judgment.'

As a result, the prime minister could not take the proper decision in this regard, he said.
