During a recent visit to Bangladesh, I conducted interviews for a specific purpose. One case of interest was the prolonged legal proceedings surrounding the Rana Plaza tragedy, which began on 24 April 2013. While the Apex court recently instructed the trial court to expedite proceedings and deliver a judgment within six months, only 69 out of 594 witnesses have been examined as of March 2024, raising concerns about the efficiency of the justice system.
