A High Court judge on Wednesday felt embarrassed to hear the bail petitions of 27 BNP men including party acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir in connection with two cases filed for violence during Sunday's hartal hours.
Justice AKM Shahidul Huq, the junior judge of a division bench of the HC led-by Justice M Siddiqur Rahman Mia, felt embarrassed but did not mention any reason behind his feeling embarrassed.
Earlier, both the judges refused to accept the petitions for hearing since those were not enlisted in the cause list for Wednesday.
Later, Justice M Siddiqur Rahman Mia asked the defence lawyers to move the petitions before this bench on May 6 after enlisting the petitions in its cause list.
As the bench refused to hear the petitions, the pro-BNP lawyers moved the petitions before another HC bench comprising Justice M Enayetur Rahim and Justice Sheikh Md Zakir Hossain.
This bench also expressed inability to hear the petitions since it has no jurisdiction to hear any bail petition.
Twenty-seven accused leaders and workers of the main opposition BNP submitted two separate bail petitions Wednesday morning, two days after the cases were filed against him.
Police filed the cases with Shahbagh and Tejgaon police stations late Sunday in connection with Sunday's violence during hartal hours.
