A top opposition leader demanded corrupt judges face criminal trials for helping the old government attack innocent people. Salahuddin Ahmed from BNP wants these crooked court officials kicked out of the legal system completely. The politician made his strong comments after attending government reform talks at the Foreign Service Academy. He believes many bad judges still work inside Bangladesh courts right after the previous regime fell.
Ahmed accused these judicial allies of running illegal night courts that punished political workers and reporters. The opposition figure said simply firing or moving these judges around different posts would not solve the problem. He wants each corrupt official prosecuted for their individual crimes against regular citizens. The BNP leader warned that keeping these dishonest judges would ruin any attempts to fix the court system.
The politician pointed out that many former government supporters easily receive bail from local courts all the way up to the High Court. Ahmed blamed fascist collaborators inside the judiciary for helping these criminals avoid punishment. He said some of these protected people committed serious crimes against humanity during the previous administration. The opposition leader fears that leaving corrupt judges in place will allow them to twist any new laws.
Ahmed demanded a completely independent court system that actually helps ordinary people instead of protecting political cronies. He stressed that removing fascist allies from both upper and lower courts must happen first before any real judicial reforms can work properly.
