It would be interesting to know whether the Ex-Adviser had a past track record of corruption while in the judiciary or whether he couldn’t resist the temptation once he became an Adviser of the Caretaker government in late 2006.
Recently ACC has started investigation and sued Justice Fazlul Haque. See the following news item attached below.
One thing that is not clear from these news reports – whether all these alleged corruption charges are something that happened during in the government office only? Or does he have a past track record of corruption? If so, those will probably be much problematic, but lower amount of money might be involved.
As citizens of the country, we would hope that the ACC will go beyond the Caretaker government tenure of this adviser and probe into the past while the he was an active member of the higher Judiciary. In between active duty in judiciary and becoming an Adviser to the Caretaker government, he has also participated in many probe commissions of national importance.
We believe that when the ACC has gone so far as suing a person of the stature as high as Justice Fazlul Haque, it should not be left unfinished. Justice should be served – either way. We only wish and hope two things for the good of the nation:
1. ACC is not wrong in this case.
2. Justice Fazlul Haque was and still is a isolated case who is not a good representative of our higher judiciary.
