Both the pro-government and pro-opposition lawyers on Tuesday have assured the Chief Justice Md Muzammel Hossain that they would not hold any rally, procession or meeting at the Supreme Court premises.
They reached the consensus at a meeting with the Chief Justice where Attorney General Mahbubey Alam was also present.
After the meeting, Mahbubey Alam told the Dhaka Tribune that the lawyers have agreed to hold their programmes at the Supreme Court Bar Association building.
They could also bring out a procession, but it must be done through the court’s shrine gate, he added.
However, hunger strike programme of SCBA was not discussed in the meeting, Mahbubey Alam informed.
Among others, Appellate Division judges Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha, Justice Abudul Wahhab Miah, Justice Nazmun Ara Sultana, Justice Syed Mahmud Hossain, Justice Md Imman Ali and Justice Hasan Foez Siddique, SCBA President AJ Mohammad Ali, acting secretary ABM Rafiqul Islam Raza, former Presidents Abdul Baset Majumder, Habibul Islam Bhuiya, AFM Mesbahuddin, ex-secretaries SM Rezaul Karim and Bodruddoza Badal, former attorney general AF Hassan Ariff, senior lawyers Anisul Huq and Yusuf Hossain Humayun were present in the meeting.
The apex court premises experienced clashes on Sunday and Monday, as fighting broke out between the pro-Awami League men and the pro-opposition lawyers.
