Lawyer Manzill Morshed stood for the writ petitioner and deputy attorney general barrister ABM Abdullah Al Mahmud Bashar represented the state. During the hearing, the court said a vulnerable situation has already been created in the government and private banking sector in Bangladesh. Necessary steps should be taken to stop all irregularities for reviving the economy and taking it to a strong position. Earlier, on January 23, a legal notice was served asking the authorities concerned to conduct an inquiry into irregularities in the banking sector of Bangladesh during the last 20 years. As there was no reply of the notice, the writ was filed with the court.
