State Defence
Appointment and
cancellation of State defence
After the District
Magistrate appoints a defence lawyer to defend an undefended accused and the
Court accepts it and allows the defence lawyer so appointed to act for the
accused on a number of occasions, abrupt cancellation of such appointment by
the Court without assigning any reason is illegal and arbitrary. Nurun Nahar
