Attorney General: All DSA cases will continue

Attorney General AM Amin Uddin has welcomed the decision to change the Digital Security Act (DSA) and make a new law.

Talking to reporters at his office on Monday, he said that the ongoing cases under the DSA will not be cancelled. The trials will continue according to the previous law.

A saving clause is provided when a law is repealed or amended, the attorney general said. 

“It is said that, in cases which are pending, it is to be assumed that the Act has not been abrogated. The same has happened to all the laws that have been repealed or amended so far,” he added.
