A writ has been filed with the High Court seeking directives to provide proper security to judges and courtrooms across Bangladesh.
Advocate Ishrat Hasan, a Supreme Court lawyer, filed the petition on Tuesday.
The writ was filed a day after a murder case accused was stabbed to death by another of the same case in a courtroom in Comilla.
