During the hearing, Minu Akhter's lawyer Mohammad Shishir Manir prayed to the HC to direct the authorities concerned to conduct a judicial enquiry in order to find out how Minu Akhter was allowed to serve a jail sentence instead of convicted Kulsuma Akhter and who are responsible for the incident and to release Minu Akhter from jail instantly.

He also urged the HC to order the law enforcers to arrest Kulsuma Akher immediately and to ask the jail authorities to introduce biometric fingerprint system for the purpose of properly identifying the exact convicted or accused persons.

Shishir Manir told The Daily Star that Minu Akhter's husband Babul Sheikh is a vagabond and she has two sons and a daughter. Her sons and daughters were present at a Chattogram court on March 22 during the proceedings of the case, he said.
