The withdrawal of 724 more cases was recommended

The interim government has recommended withdrawal of 6,202 “politically motivated” cases filed to harass opposition leaders and activists during the Awami League government.

The interim government plans to withdraw all ghost and politically motivated cases filed during the past 15 years of Awami League rule by February, said Law Adviser Asif Nazrul yesterday.

Why is there still no measure to stop the filing of wholesale cases?

The government has formed a ministry-level committee and one committee each for every district for recommending the withdrawal of cases filed with the intent to harass political leaders, activists, and innocent persons.
