Dhaka, May 30 -- Hearings will be conducted virtually under the e-justice system introduced during the lockdown over the coronavirus outbreak, the apex court's Registrar General Md Ali Akbar said in a statement on Saturday.
Court proceedings in Bangladesh remained suspended after the government enforced a nationwide shutdown of offices and public transport from Mar 26, extending it in phases until May 30.
Meanwhile, 18 new additional judges have been added to the High Court's roster after they took their oaths via a videoconference on Saturday.
Chief Justice Syed Mahmud Hossain administered the oaths to them remotely, according to an official at the top court.
