Anti-discrimination students’ movement on Wednesday laid seize at the High Court premises and demonstrated demanding immediate removal of the ‘fascist’ judges appointed during Awami League regime.

Besides, the anti-discrimination lawyers’ forum brought out a protest rally demanding immediate resignation or removal of the partisan and corrupt judges from the High Court Division of the Supreme Court.

Several hundred lawyers under the banner of anti-discrimination lawyers’ forum gathered in front of the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) building in the morning. 

Later they shifted their programme in front of Annex Building and claimed that the partisan and corrupt judges are also responsible for the ruining the country.

They said that the judges, loyal to Awami League, made the desire and wishes of the party as the country’s binding law. 

Ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina could kill a large number of students because of their patronization, the speakers said, adding that the lawyers are also responsible for such a huge number of enforced disappearance and killing.

The agitation and movement would continue until the partisan and corrupt judges resigned or are removed, the speakers added.

The anti-discrimination students’ movement leaders also said that the movement would continue to press home their demand for removal of the partisan and corrupt judges.

One of the coordinators of Anti-Discrimination Students Movement Hasnat Abdullah demanded removal of the partisan and biased judges, terming them as the cohorts of the fascist government.

“We have to resist anyone, who will try to rehabilitate the cohorts of the Awami League fascists. None will be allowed to betray the blood of martyrs. All murderers would be tried. The culprits including Sheikh Hasina who are behind those heinous crimes, should be brought back to the country and hand over to the court of justice,” he added.
