HC: Do not parade suspects before media prior to court

The High Court has recommended that the accused should not be paraded before the media until they are produced in courts.

The HC bench of Justice M Enayetur Rahim and Amir Hossain made the observation Thursday while commuting the death penalty of JMB militant Mamnur Rashid alias Jahid to life time imprisonment.

A lower court awarded death penalty to Jahid in a case filed for exploding bomb at the office of Gazipur Police Super in 2009 while the law enforcers were displaying some arrested JMB members before the media.
