Sylhet Bureau :
The lawyer for suspended sub-inspector Akbar Hossain Bhuiyan, has withdrawn himself from the case of the custodial death of Rahyan Ahmed in Sylhet.
Advocate Md Misbaur Rahman Alam made the decision early Friday to avoid negative comments and embarrassing situations. He also wrote on his Facebook account on the issue.
Earlier on December 10, Misbaur submitted legal documents to the court to represent the accused, Akbar Hossain.
The lawyer said: “For defending the accused in the case, many people made bad comments about my senior lawyer and my family, which is undesirable. I have withdrawn myself from the case so that my family, including me, does not have to face embarrassing situations.
“Access to legal services is a basic human right. I took up the case out of a sense of professional responsibility, not for money. This sort of case was new and challenging for me,” said Misbaur, also a member of the Sylhet District Lawyers’ Association.
