Clause No.4
JAMUCA was entitled to hold inquiry/ investigation regarding the
genuineness of the freedom fighter’s certificate–– A pertinent
question arises whether JAMUCA itself can hold inquiry or investigation to
verify the lists of freedom fighters. In this regard, our considered view
is that Section 7(Jha) of the জাতীয়
মুক্তিযোদ্ধা কাউন্সিল আইন,
২০০২ authorizes JAMUCA to prepare lists of freedom fighters and
distribute certificate as freedom fighters. Under the said provisions of
law, JAMUKA is also entitled to make recommendation for cancellation of
forged and false certificate of the freedom fighters. Appellate Division is
also of the view that JAMUCA can itself cancel the forged and false
certificate of the freedom fighters. On the other hand,
মুক্তিযোদ্ধা যাচাই-বাছাই
নির্দেশিকা, ২০১৬ has been framed to streamline
the whole process under which JAMUCA can get the verification of the real
freedom fighters through Upazila Jachai Bachai Committee, but that does not
inevitably construe that only Upazila Jachai Bachai Committee is entitled
to hold the verification or investigation process. JAMUCA can also, at any
time, amend such Jachai Bachai Directives. Thus,
মুক্তিযোদ্ধা যাচাই-বাছাই
নির্দেশিকা, ২০১৬ being mere directives will not
put an embargo upon JAMUCA to hold inquiry/investigation including
cancellation of freedom fighter’s certificate under Section 7(Jha) of
the জাতীয় মুক্তিযোদ্ধা
কাউন্সিল আইন, ২০০২. In the given
circumstances, the High Court Division fell in error of law in making the
substantive Rule nullifying the investigation process regarding the
genuineness of the freedom fighter’s certificate of the
writ-petitioner-respondent No.1. ––Appellate Division finds that JAMUCA
was entitled to hold inquiry/investigation regarding the genuineness of the
freedom fighter’s certificate, but the High Court Division failed to
consider this aspect of the case and, as such, the judgment and order dated
15.11.2021 passed by a Division Bench of the High Court Division in Writ
Petition No.1481 of 2020 making the substantive Rule absolute is liable to
be interfered with only to that extent. .....Ministry of Liberation War
