BNP-Jamaat lawyers who often trigger a storm in a teacup over democracy, independence of the judiciary and rule of law, kept courtroom occupied for a whole day, hindering its work for the rest of the day. As a result, many justice seekers were deprived of getting justice.
The incident of August 28 reminds me of a similar occurrence in 2011. Several BNP lawyers attacked us during the hearing in a dual bench of the High Court, headed by me, against BNP leader Khaleda Zia for speaking offensively about our sacred Constitution.
