Twelve judges of the Appellate Division and the High Court
have been infected with Covid-19.
Chief Justice Hasan Foez Siddique said when court
proceedings started on Monday morning.
Trial proceedings in many important benches have been
suspended due to surge of Covid cases, said the Chief Justice. “If one of a
double bench gets infected, the trial of that bench remains suspended.”
“In this case, if you do not cooperate, then it becomes
difficult for us. Otherwise, we will have to reintroduce virtual judicial
proceedings,” he added.
