Two newly-appointed justices of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, Justice AKM Asaduzzaman and Justice Farah Mahbub, paid a courtesy visit to President Mohammed Shahabuddin at Bangabhaban on Thursday evening.


During the meeting, the President congratulated the justices and urged them to uphold justice in their new roles. The justices exchanged pleasantries with the President, marking the beginning of their tenure.

On March 24, 2025, the President, in consultation with the Chief Justice, appointed the two High Court Division judges to the Appellate Division following recommendations from the Supreme Judicial Appointment Council. The justices were formally sworn in on March 25 by the Chief Justice.
