Judges Naima Haider and Mamunur Rahman have resigned from their positions after being barred from judicial duties following the 2024 mass uprising. The announcement was made on Tuesday by Supreme Court Public Relations Officer Shafiqul Islam. Justice Mamunur Rahman submitted his resignation via email from Canada, while Justice Naima Haider handed in a handwritten resignation letter.

According to the report, both judges had previously faced allegations of corruption and politically biased verdicts during the tenure of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. It was reported that the Supreme Judicial Council had found the allegations against them to be proven.

Their resignations mark a significant development in the judiciary, which has faced scrutiny over allegations of misconduct and political influence in recent years.
