Bangladesh’s former Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha who was allegedly forced to leave the country about seven years ago while he was in office, has said he is ready to return to Bangladesh and prove that all the cases filed against him are false and fabricated if the government ensures his security. "I will go back to Bangladesh. I'm now waiting for a green signal," he told The Daily Star from abroad via video call on August 14, according to an agency report.
Justice Sinha described how then Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina forced him to leave the country by using the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI) as "he fought for the independence of the judiciary, ignoring her directives and interference". He said three money-laundering cases were slapped against him in absentia. He has been convicted and sentenced to 11 years' imprisonment in a case and two other cases are under investigation.
