The High Court, on April 29, refused to accept a writ petition seeking a directive for the authorities not to arrest or harass Awami League (AL) President Sheikh Hasina on her return home. Daily Star reports that a bench in the High Court turned down the application for permission to file the petition on grounds of procedural flaws. Lawyers who filed the petition said that they would move the court again after rectifying the errors. The government has not yet responded to the April 22 ruling by the High Court on the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Chairperson Khaleda Zia's alleged confinement. The Court had asked the interim administration to explain within five days why the court will not direct that the former prime minister be produced before it to prove that she is not confined to her residence. Additional Attorney General Salauddin Ahmed told Daily Star that the reply is ready but could not be submitted as the matter was not on the cause list.

The interim administration has sent a set of proposals to the Election Commission for banning party-affiliated student organisations and trade unions. Law Adviser Mainul Hosein said on April 29, “I have told the chief election commissioner (CEC) that there should be a law so that no political party can use the teachers and students to its advantage.” He said the government believes there should not be party-affiliated student and labour bodies in public or private institutions. “We are not talking about a complete ban on student politics, but we must keep the students out of party politics”, he added.
