The Election Commission (EC) of Bangladesh has appointed four judicial magistrates to oversee and curb electoral offences in the upcoming by-elections for Bogura-6 and Sherpur-3 constituencies, scheduled for April 9. The appointments were confirmed on April 5 through a notification issued by Mohammad Didar Hossain, Deputy Secretary of the EC’s Law Branch. The magistrates will conduct summary trials under the Representation of the People Order and Section 190 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and submit reports to the Commission. They will serve from April 7 to 11.
The appointed magistrates include Md. Mehedi Hasan and Md. Kamal Hossain for Bogura, and Md. Sultan Mahmud Milon and Md. Hasan Bhuiyan for Sherpur. Earlier, the EC had deployed 20 executive magistrates to ensure compliance with the electoral code of conduct in these constituencies.
The Bogura-6 seat became vacant after BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman, who won the February 12 election, retained another constituency. The Sherpur-3 election was rescheduled after a candidate’s death during the same national polls.
