Section 2 (Ka)(4) |
On the question of removal the name of Bangladesh House Building Finance Corporation from the definition clause of Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003, it is found that the Appellate Division pronounced the judgment on 22-7-1996 i.e. long before coming into force of Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003. It is very unfortunate that Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs still did not act as per the decision of 49 DLR (AD) 80 and 47 DLR 158 thereby causes hindrance in the matter of administration of Justice. It is expected that in no time Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs will act as per the aforesaid decisions and delete House Building Finance Corporation from section 2 Ka(4) of Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003.

Section 2(Ga) |
Section 2(Ga)— The term 'contingent' or the term 'any other liabilities'
as appears in the definition are derived from or incurred on the
transaction of loan in any form, such as 'advance', 'debt', 'cash loan',
'over draft' etc. Any other sorts of loan not covered by the definition of
loan (ঋণ) under section 2(Ga) of the Ain cannot be realised under the
Ain. Nevertheless, it has already been found that there was no transaction
of loan between the bank and petitioner. The suit is beyond the
jurisdiction of the Court established under the Ain, 2003. .....Kazi Md

Section 2 |
Section 2— Since no property is mortgaged by the principal debtor, the property mortgaged to the Bank by the judgment-debtor is to be sold in auction first and the decree would be transferred in favour of the mortgagor and he may execute the decree against the principal debtor in view of section 6(5) of the Ain. .....Nazim Uddin (Md) vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 24 BLC 732 |

Sections 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 |
Sections 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6— It appears from the specific provisions of the said Ain, in particular section 3, that the provisions of the said Ain have been given overriding effect over any other provisions of law under any other Act. Under section 4 of the said Ain, some Courts, being Artha Rin Adalats, were established and, by virtue of section 5, the exclusive jurisdiction has been given to the said Adalats for adjudication of cases to be filed by the financial institutions relating to realization of loan. Since, admittedly, the plaintiff bank is a bank established under the Bank Company Act, 1991 and by virtue of Clause (Ka) of section 2 of the said Ain it is included in the definition of financial institution', the natural conclusion is that if it wants to realize any loan amount by filing any suit, it must go before the Artha Rin Adalat established under the said Ain. Not only that, the said suit has to be filed in accordance with the provisions under the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003. Upon mere reading of the plaint as well as the deposition of the sole witness as examined by the plaintiff and the specific prayers made by the plaintiff in the plaint, it is crystal clear that this is a case for realization of loan amount against the defendant Nos. 1-6. In view of above, this Court is of the view that the issue No. 1 should be determined against the plaintiff. This means, this Suit is not maintainable before this Admiralty Court and is liable to be dismissed. However, if the plaintiff desires, and if the law permits, it is at liberty to approach the appropriate forum for seeking redress as sought in the instant suit. .....Premier Bank Limited vs FV Rainbow-1 (Admiralty Jurisdiction) 23 BLC 727 |

Section 2 |
Section 2—To attract the jurisdiction of the Artha Rin Adalat the plaintiff must be a financial institution as contemplated under section 2 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain because it is only such a financial institution which is entitled to a suit before the Adalat for realisation of any advance made to any party as a loan. The Artha Rin Adalat is a Civil Court of defined nature and limited jurisdiction and it does not enjoy all the powers of the Code of Civil Procedure, section 151— Artha Rin has wrongly assumed jurisdiction and is illegally proceeded with a suit—The High Court Division may act under section 151 CPC. .....Kazi Jawaherul Islam vs Standard Co-operative Credit Society Limited., 18 BLD 310 = 50 DLR 333. |

Sonali Bank Limited vs Bangladesh | 68 DLR 545 |
Section 2(Ga)(4) |
Section 2(Ga)(4)—The rate of interest is subject to control or review by the central bank of the country to ensure that it is justified by the forces of demand and to provide healthy competitiveness amongst the banks and the financial institutions. The mechanism of money market which is controlling the banks and the financial institutions are also subject to payment of compound interest to the respective depositors. All these are there to ensure protection to the borrowers as they desire and deserve and at the same time to achieve and maximise social welfare and basic values of life. In that view of the matter, it cannot be said that inclusion of "interest" in section 2(Ga)4) is against the spirit of Articles 8(1) and 20(2) of the Constitution. .....Angels Corporation (Pvt) Ltd vs Bangladesh, 59 DLR 601. |

In recovering "interest" the respondent Bank does not act contrary to the principles of social and economic justice as enshrined under Article 8(1) of the Constitution. .....Angels Corporation (Pvt) Ltd vs Bangladesh 59 DLR 601. |

Sections 3, 26, 30 and 34 |
Since the word "Ifllffij" (directly) has been used in section 34(10) of the Ain, it cannot be interpreted that prior show cause notice is necessary as the meaning of section 34(10) would be nugatory is such a case. Thus, the provisions of section 51 and Order XXI, rule 37 of the Code are in conflict with the provisions of section 34(1)(9) (10) of the Ain. Under section 26 of the Ain the provision of the Code is applicable so far as it is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Ain which includes the provisions of section 34 of the Ain. Moreover, under section 30 of the Ain special provision has been made for publishing notice after filing of the execution case undtv rrrUun circumstances. From the sub-sections (9) and (10) of section 34 of the Ain, there is nothing to show that there is any scope of issuing any show cause notice before issuing warrant of arrest rather it appears that warrant of arrest may be issued directly. What is not in the law itself, cannot be imported in the law by way of interpretation. Manik K Bhattacherjee vs Artha Rin Adalat 16 BLC 195. |

Section 3— Whether Artharin Ain is a special law?— Section 3 of the
Artharin Ain unambiguously heralds that notwithstanding anything contained
to the contrary in any Act of Parliament, the provisions of the Artharin
Ain shall be applied; meaning that in applying the provisions of Artharin
Ain if any law appears to be inconsistent with the provisions of Artharin
Ain, the provisions of that law shall be ignored. …..Mr. A.N. Sharfuddin

Sections 3, 26 and 34—The provision of warrant of arrest has been specifically incorporated by the legislature in order to ensure speedy recovery of long standing dues which remained unadjusted by the loan defaulters using the language ‘ডিক্রির টাকা পরিশোধে বাধ্য করার প্রয়াস হিসেবে’ With the object to circumscribe said defaulted culture of the borrowers some deterrent provisions like sections 19, 41, 42, 44, including 34, have been incorporated in the Act Vill of 2003 which is absolutely within the wisdom and domain of the legislature. .....ABM Shirajum Monir vs Subordinate Judge, 14 BLC 716. |

Sections 3, 26, 30 and 34 |
Sections 3, 26, 30 and 34—Since the word "সরাসরি" (directly) has been used in section 34(10) of the Ain, it cannot be interpreted that prior show cause notice is necessary as the meaning of section 34(10) would be nugatory is such a case. Thus, the provisions of section 51 and Order XXI, rule 37 of the Code are in conflict with the provisions of section 34(1)(9)(10) of the Ain. Under section 26 of the Ain the provision of the Code is applicable so far as it is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Ain which includes the provisions of section 34 of the Ain. Moreover, under section 30 of the Ain special provision has been made for publishing notice after filing of the execution case under certain circumstances. From the sub-sections (9) and (10) of section 34 of the Ain, there is nothing to show that there is any scope of issuing any show cause notice before issuing warrant of arrest rather it appears that warrant of arrest may be issued directly.

Sections 3, 26, 30 and 34 |
Sections 3, 26, 30 and 34—It cannot be said that Order XXI, rule 37 of the Code is identical with the provision laid down in section 34 of the Ain of 2003. Moreover, the notice as required under Order XXI, rule 37 of the Code is also not indispensable, rather it was followed by a proviso where the Court preserved the power not to issue such notice if it comes within the knowledge that in order to cause delay the judgment-debtor has been adopting dilatory tactics. Moreso, the said provision stands for money decree passed in a Money Suit but not in a suit for recovery of bank loan which may also be called a money decree for which special law exists for the said purpose e.g. Act VIII of 2003. Accordingly, the said provision of the Code as to issuance of show cause notice cannot be allowed to be implemented alone leaving the proviso laid down therein in order to issue a warrant of arrest against the judgment-debtor under section 34(1) of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003. .....ABM Shirajum Monir vs Subordinate Judge, 14 BLC 716. |

Section 3—The "deeming clause"—Special forum—In enacting special statutes legislature employs deeming clause as a legal fiction. The function of the court is to find out the limitation of this legal fiction—Artha Rin Adalat—Special Forum——The nature and function of Artha Rin Adalat coupled with power and authority clearly indicate that it is a special forum of limited jurisdiction and not an ordinary civil court. .....Sultan Alam @SA Bada Vs.

Sections 3, 5, 20 and 26— Sections 3 and 26 of the Ain have given overriding effect of the provisions of the Ain in case of inconsistency with any other law or provisions of the Code. Section 20 of the Ain has made any claims un-entertainable by any court, which has been lodged ignoring provisions of the Ain which, under section 5, has given exclusive jurisdiction to the Adalat to entertain all suits regarding realisation of loans. .....Shirajul Islam Mollah vs Bangladesh Bank (Civil) 73 DLR 554 |

irrespective of any contrary provisions in any other law. Therefore, the
provisions of the Transfer of Property Act or any other Act shall have to
be read subject to the provisions of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 and, in
case of any clash between the provisions of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain and
any other law, the provisions of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain shall prevail.

President and notwithstanding the provision authorising the Goverment to
make appointment of the learned Judges of the Adalat and constitute the

ARA Jute Mills Limited vs. Janata Bank | 3 ADC (2006) 684=58 DLR (AD) 126. |
Section 4(3)(5) |
Section 4(3)(5)—About the mode of consultation with the Supreme Court,
there is nothing clearly mentioned in sub-section (5) of section 4 of the
Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003. Since in the Notification dated 1-1-2004, there
is clear indication that consultation has taken place with the Supreme
Court prior to the transfer and appointment of the named presiding Judges
to the Artha Rin Adalats, the Jurisdiction of the Adalats cannot be
questioned, as the suits were filed in the respective Adalats after the
said notification was issued the proceeding are valid in law. Therefore,
there is no legal flaw or defect in the appointment of the Judges of the
Artha Rin Adalat and the proceedings of the suit are competent under the
law. .....Idris Miah (Md) vs Bangladesh, 10 BLC 728

Sections 4(6) and 19(6) |
Sections 4(6) and 19(6)—The expression "হলফনামাযুক্ত আরজি বা জবাব’’ incorporated in section 6(4) of the Ain, 2003 has been used in the context of ‘‘কোন মামলা একতরফাসূত্রে বা তাৎক্ষণিক নিষ্পত্তি ক্ষেত্রে" when the word ‘‘বা’’ (or) would be readas the disjunctive one, an unworkable situation would arise for the Adalat. Because, in that event the Adalat shall have to consider either the plaint only or the written statement only in the backdrop of impossibility of disposal of a suit solely on the basis of written statement. Disposal of a suit solely based on the written statement will render the provisions of section 19(6) of the Ain, 2003 nugatory. If the word ‘‘বা’’ (or) employed in section 6(4) of the Ain, 2003 is read as a conjunctive word in an exparte disposal situation, it will mean that even if the defendant is absent, the Adalat must consider both the plaint and written statement making the provisions of section 19(1) of the Ain 2003 redundant, for, this section requires exparte disposal (একতরফাসূত্রে) in the absence of defendant. .....Osman Gazi Chowdhury vs Artha Rin Adalat, 21 BLC 322. |

Sections 4(7) and 41 |
Artha Rin Adalat can only be constituted by Joint District Judge alone. If due to illness or for any other reason or the court is in vacation the Adalat cannot function with its regular work the District Judge will appoint temporarily a Joint District Judge to continue function of Artha Rin Adalat. For the purpose of functioning of Adalat to be more particular to hold the trial jurisdiction lies with the Joint District Judge. Section 41 of Ain clearly says that the District Judge and the Additional District Judge are the appellate authority to dispose of the appeal against the judgment and order passed by the Joint District Judge in the capacity of Artha Rin Adalat Judge. .....Sheikh Md Rafiqul Islam (Babul) vs Manager, Uttara Bank Limited, 66 DLR 131. |

Section 4 and 4(7) |
From the scheme of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 and the provisions of Section 4 of the Ain it is clear that the only persons legally competent to be appointed to act as Judges of the Artha Rin Adalat are Joint District Judges. In view of Section 4 (7) of the Ain even those who are per-forming the functions of Judges-in-Charge of the Artha Rin Adalat shall have to be appointed from amongst the Joint District Judges. Therefore, the High Court Division rightly set aside those orders which were passed by the learned Judge-in-Charge who was holding the rank of Additional District Judge but part of the impugned Order No. 1 dated 23.01.2008 relating to the registration of the suit was kept valid as that was an administrative order. The learned Additional District Judge has no jurisdiction to pass any judicial order in Artha Rin Suit in view of the provisions of Section 4 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003. .....One Bank Ltd. Vs.

Section 4(4)(7) |
The learned Additional District Judge cannot be a Judge of Artha Rin Adalat as per provisions of Sub-Sections (4) and (7) of Section 4 of the said Ain, 2003. In view of the above observations and findings we are of the view that the impugned order of attachment before judgment passed by the learned Additional District Judge acting as a Judge of Artha Rin Adalat without having any power and jurisdiction being Coram non judice has been passed without lawful authority and jurisdiction. .....One Bank Ltd.

Section 4(5)(7) |
Regarding the appointment of Judges of the Artha Rin Adalat, Section 4(5) of the Ain envis-ages that the Government shall in consultation with the Supreme Court, appoint Judges of the Artha Rin Adalats from amongst the Joint District Judges and the Joint District Judges appointed in the aforesaid manner shall not be able to adjudicate any other civil or criminal cases except the Artha Rin Suit. Section 4(7) of the Ain provides that if a Judge of the Artha Rin Adalat has temporarily been unable to perform his duty owing to leave, illness or any other rea-son then the District Judge may appoint a Joint District Judge under his jurisdiction and control to perform the functions and duties of a Judge of Artha Rin Adalat for the time being on full time basis or in addition to his own duties. .....One Bank Ltd.

The Bank filed suit for recovery of loan money but did not file any mortgage suit under section 5(2) of the Ain. If the Bank or financial institute wishes to foreclose down the right of redemption of the mortgagor, then it has to file mortgage suit and in that case the decree awarded by the Adalat shall be preliminary decree and in all other cases, the decree awarded by the Court in a suit filed for recovery of loan money shall be the final decree. A suit to obtain a decree that a mortgagor shall be absolutely debarred from his right to redeem the mortgaged property is called a suit for foreclosure. .....City Bank Limited vs Artha Rin Adalat 26 BLC 601. |

The decree for realisation of money was passed on 10-3-2003 as per provision of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 1990. The Execution Case No. 30 of 2004 was filed when the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 came into effect. From saving clause of section 60(3) of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 it appears that the proceeding which was filed under the Artha Rin Ain 1990 but proceeded when the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 came into force, shall proceedas per provision of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 as far as it practical. So, from this provision it appears that the execution case has been proceeding in accordance with law. .....Shahjahan Mia (Md) vs Government of Bangladesh, 12 BLC 742. |

A mere perusal of sub-section (11) of section 5 of the Ain, 2003 along with Rule 1 of Order 34 of the Code, clearly shows that the plaintiff has right to be added as a defendant in the Artha Rin Suit, filed by the Bank as well as the Adalat has ample jurisdiction to add her as defendant, since she has appellant in the mortgage security, moreso, when sub-section (11) of section 5 of the Ain, 2003, keeps an enabling provisions and provisions of Rule (10) of Order 1 of the Code, is not inconsistent with any provisions of the Ain.

Section 5(2) |
Hypothecation is a variant of the system of pledge. Pledge is defined by section 172 of the Contract Act as bailment of goods as security for payment of a debt or performance of a promise. The civil law recognises two kinds of pledge, viz. the "pignus" (pawn) in which possession of goods is actually delivered to the creditor or pawnee and "hypotheca" (hypothecation) where possession of the goods pledged remain with the debtor with the obligation as per contract. Under hypothecation a creditor has a right over the goods belonging to the debtor and such right gives the creditor a power to cause the thing to be sold to recover his dues out of the proceeds. It is also an act of pledging goods as securing for a debt or demand without delivery of possession. Consequence is that although the property remains in possession of the debtor, it cannot be transferred without express consent or permission of the creditor. By hypothecation certain rights in movable property are transferred to the creditor. When the goods are handed over to the creditor by way of security, it becomes a pledge. .....Eastern Bank Ltd vs Sufia Re-Rolling Mills and Steel Ltd, 56 DLR 530. |

does not exceed Tk. 5 lacs. The jurisdiction of the Certificate Officer is
in addition but not in derogation to the jurisdiction of the Artha Rin

Against the order of injunction dated 13-3-2007 restraining the defendants from holding AGM and from transferring executive power till disposal of the suit, defendant No. 7 filed Miscellaneous Appeal No. 84 of 2007 which was allowed. Against the judgment passed in the Appeal, the plaintiff filed a revisional application before this Court, which issued Rule and stayed the operation of the order passed by the appellate Court in Civil Revision No. 2981 of 2007. The Arbitration Tribunal found that the current Executive Committee of BGMEA had been formed without lawful authority and that since the BGMEA Election had taken place in violation of a Court's order and was illegal, the Executive Committee formed by the Board of Directors pursuant to the BGMEA Election was illegal. This finding is also totally misconceived, because whether the Election had taken place in violation of the Court's order could not be decided by the Tribunal which even did not have the jurisdiction to say that the BGMEA Election had taken place in violation of the Court's order until the violation case is allowed and the suit is decreed. Had there been an order of injunction restraining exclusion of the nominations made by BGMEA from being voters of the FBCCI Election, the Tribunal in that event could exclude the voters of the BGMEA. It is contended that the holding of AGM and handing over executive power were not proper during continuance of the order of stay passed by the High Court Division. .....FR Garments (Pvt) Ltd vs Artha Rin Adalat, Dhaka, 61 DLR 223. |

Section 5(3) (4) |
Whether the decree which has been passed by the learned Judge of the Adalat of the Artha Rin Suit is a decree within the definition of foreclosure or not?— The High Court Division held that it is well settled principle of law that the decree execution court who can only to proceed with the execution proceeding in pursuance of the terms and conditions of the decree passed by the learned Judge of the Adalat and there is no scope in the part of the decree execution Adalat to go beyond the decree. After consideration the provision of section 5(3) (4) of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 wherein it appears that if any decree passed within the meaning of sub-section (3) of section 5 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 then it shall require to be made final by the Adalat But the decree which comes within the meaning of sub-section (4) of section 5 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 then it shall become final with the sale of the mortgaged property. Therefore sub-section (4) of section 5 of the Artha Rin Adalat, 2003 makes it clear that save and except the decree passed in a mortgage suit for foreclosure, the decree passed in other mortgaged suit also do not require to make final decree for the purpose of starting the execution case. In the present case though in the plaint, the plaintiff prayed for a decree for foreclosure along with money decree but the Artha Rin Adalat passed a simple money decree only. So, it is not necessary to leave final decree before filing of execution case. The decision as cited by the learned Advocate for the petitioner reported in 17 BLC 380 is not applicable in the facts and circumstances of the present case. In such view of the matter, the High Court Division does not find any substance in the submissions of the learned Advocate for the petitioner that the decree being passed in preliminary form cannot be put into execution for realization of decreetal amount by sale of the mortgaged property before making the same as final decree. But the High Court Division got substance in the submissions of the learned Advocate for the respondent Bank. In such view of the matter, the High Court Division does not find any merit in the Rule. In the result, the Rule is discharged. …..Premier Cold Storage Ltd. and another -Vs.- Judge, Artha Rin Adalat No. 2, Dhaka and another. (Spl. Original) 13 ALR (HCD) 285-290 |

Sections 5(4) and 33(7) |
It is clear from the law that until auction sale and final decree, the right to redeem remains intact. However, that deeming provision of Section 5(4) may very well be argued to meet its limitation in the circumstances envisaged in Section 33(7) given that the fact or concept of on auction sale does not arise in a Section 33(7) scenario. In that scenario, the very issuance of a Section 33(7) Certificate of Title and its registration thereof may be construed as in itself tantamounting to a finality, thereby, extinguishing a right of redemption at the point of such issuance. The right to redeem is in fact a substantive right to property which ought not to be extinguished by mere implication given that Section 33(7) remains silent on the extinguishment of the capacity to redeem inherent in any mortgagor. …..Messrs World Resources Limited -Vs.- Artha Rin Adalat No. 3. 3 ALR(2014)(1) 446 |

The learned District Judge refused to accept the uncorroboreted apprehension of the petitioner and rejected the petitioners application for transfer of the Artha Rin Adalat suit to another Court. Mere rejection of the application for additional evidence cannot be a ground for transfer of a case u/s 5(10) of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain 2003.The uncorroborated assertion of the petitioner that he will not get justice before the learned Artha Rin Adalat as an officer of the Bank was found in the chamber of the learned Judge is not enough for transfer of a Case. …..A.

passed on the basis of the said affidavit without examination of any
witness and formal proof of the documents is found to be wholly inadequate

The above analysis on the different provisions of the Ain, 2003, which had been carried out in an effort to lay down a workable statutory interpretation, leads us to take a view that the meaning of the expression “হলফনামাযুক্ত আরজি বা জবাব” employed in Section 6(4) of the Ain, 2003 is that the plaint (made with affidavit) is to be considered and where necessary the written statement (made under affidavit) is also to be considered. Hence, in Bangla the following expression “হলফনামাযুক্ত আরজি এবং যথাযথ ক্ষেত্র বিবাদীর হলফনামাযুক্ত জবাব” would sound more appropriate. ...Osman Gazi Chy Vs.

Section 6(5) of the Act, 2003 incorporates provisions to the effect that in passing the decree, the mortgagor shall be liable for the decretal dues jointly and severally along with the principal borrower and 3rd party guarantor. Thereby, he would become the judgment debtor and execution case shall proceed against all the judgment debtors. Section 34(1) of the Act, 2003 authorises the Adalat to award civil imprisonment in the execution proceeding against all the judgment debtors subject to conditions incorporated in section 34 of the Act in order to compel the judgment debtors to repay the decretal dues. Therefore, these are the provisions to the Adalat to assess the circumstances as to how the decree, if passed, would be realized from the judgment debtors. .....Ali Imam Vs.

States that the plaint and the documents must be in support of the affidavit— The Court while deciding a case ex-parte did not explain his satisfaction. Moreover, it has never been stated that the contents made in the plaint and the documents are in consonance and in support with the affidavit. Therefore the affidavit also is not in accordance with law. Since the contents of the affidavit are not specific and not supporting the plaint, the decree as passed is a nullity. …..Mrs. Nahid Anower Khan -Vs .- Artha Rin Adalat 3 ALR(2014)(1) 241 |

Determination of the necessary party— The Adalat at the time of passing any judgment or finally disposing of the suit should have to take into consideration of the facts as to whether the plaintiff-financial institution made the defendant/defendants in the Artha Rin Suit in view of the statutory provision of sub-section(5) of section 6 of the Ain, 2003 and also to determine whether the defendant in the Artha Rin Suit is a borrower or mortgagor or guarantor for the purpose of fixing the liability of the loan taken by a company, for different business purpose, from the plaintiff-financial institution. When the Adalat passed the impugned judgment beyond the scope of law as provided for in section 6(5) of the Ain, 2003, then it can be said that the same is without jurisdiction. …..Mahbub Ali, Son of late Maharam Ali, of Gusra, Post Office Noapara, Police Station-Raouzan, District- Chittagong.-Vs.-The Judge,Artha Rin Adalat-1, Chittagong and others. 4 ALR 2014(2) 333 |

Since the law itself does not permit the creditor, bank to implead any
party other than the persons/entity mentioned in section 6(5) of the Ain so
this court cannot go beyond the said express provisions of law. The
contention is advanced by the learned counsel for the respondent, bank that
section 6(5) is not any conclusive element of impleading anyone apart from
those 3 categories, if other person is found to have involvement in
availing loan facilities and then he/she will also be impleaded as
necessary party and since the present petitioners are admittedly share
holders as well as directors of defendant no. 1, company so they are liable
to re pay the loan and for that, they have rightly been implead as
defendants in the suit, but we are not at one with the submissions, since
there has been no avenue in the four corner of Artha Rin Adalat Ain to
implead any share holder or director as defendant in any Artha Rin suit.

Sections 6(5) |
No property was admittedly mortgaged by the principal debtor/loanee. Therefore the Artha Rin Adalat is bound to order to sell the mortgaged property which was included in the Schedule of the plaint/decree. It is now well settled that the company and its directors/shareholders are distinct and separate entities. There is no scope to treat the directors’ property as the property of the principal debtor. Both Ka as well as Kha Schedule properties have been mortgaged by third party mortgagors. They should be treated to be at par and the Artha Rin Adalat Committed no mistake in treating both the mortgaged property at par and lawfully included both the properties for auction to adjust the loan amount of the Bank. The High Court Division hold that the impugned order is lawful and in complete compliance with section 6(5) of the Artha Rin Act 2003 as well as directions given by the High Court Division in various writ petitions. The High Court Division has also considered the submission of Mr. Chowdhury with regard to his argument as to Judgment passed against dead person. This aspect has been resolved by this Division previously and as such the High Court Division does not think it appropriate to reopen the same issue which has been decided earlier by the High Court Division. In such view of the matter, the Atha Rin Adalat was fully justified in passing the order to sell the Ka Schedule property of the petitioners simultaneously with Kha Schedule property by auction and the impugned Order No. 89 dated 28.04.2011 has been passed with lawful authority. In view of the above, the High Court Division finds no substance in this Rule. Accordingly the Rule is discharged without any order as to cost. .....Mr. Jainul Karim. -Vs.- Govt. of Bangladesh, represented by the Secretary, Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs, Bangladesh Secretariat, Ramna, Dhaka and others (Spl.Original) 16 ALR (HCD) 180-185 |

postal receipt thereof must be tagged with the record. But in the present

attempt was made to serve the notice/ summons upon the defendants.
Moreover, no Order has been passed by the Court necessitating publication
of summons in the daily newspaper. Rather publication in the newspaper

Section 10, 19, 41 |
In the instant case, we have noticed that the trial Court below for the first time fixed the date for an ex-parte hearing on 28.02.2022, and on that day the petitioner appeared before the trial Court along with an application prayed for time to submit the written statement, which was rejected and thereby passed the ex-parte judgment and decree on the same day in presence of the petitioner as evident from Annexure – B to the writ petition. So it is crystal clear that in violation of the mandatory provision of section 19(1) of the Ain 2003, the ex-parte judgment and decree has been passed and, as such, it is a nullity in the eye of the law. .....Mosarrof Hosen and anr Vs.

There are no provisions in section 10 of the Ain for filing applications against the ex-parte judgments and decree of the Adalat similar to the provisions contained in section 19(2) of the Ain. It was open to the defendant to explore possible avenues of redress otherwise available under the Ain. While the appeal provisions of section 41 come immediately to mind, in addition, a reading of section 26 of the Act serves to provide an indication of invoking relevant provisions of the Code. .....ABSCO Limited vs Artha Rin Adalat No.2, Dhaka, 67 DLR 9. |

Section 10(2) |
The law itself is a flexible one. We simply cannot understand when the law itself is so positive on the issue how the court below passed an exparte decree holding that though the defendant was given time to file written statement they did not file the same. Absolutely on a perverse finding and without applying judicial mind the Court below decreed the suit ex-parte where in so doing not even the plaintiff was examined. It baffles us. It pricks our judicial conscience when we see the issue which goes at the root of jurisdiction of the suit has been disregarded in such a manner without any subjective or objective consideration whatsoever which leads to absurdity and absolutely without any lawful authority. .....Abdul Hamid Chowdhury vs Artha Rin Adalat, 68 DLR 148. |

On perusal of the aforesaid provision, it transpires that before passing an ex-parte judgment and decree the trial Court has to be satisfied at first, the following requirement has been fulfilled mainly that (a) the date was fixed for ex-parte hearing and (b) the defendant does not appear on that day or (3) the defendant is not found present after he was called. .....Mosarrof Hosen and anr Vs.

Sections 10 and 19(1) |
Sections 10 and 19(1)— The High Court Division found that the date fixed
for hearing of the case necessarily means a date falling after the filing
of written statements under Section 10 of the Ain in evidence of a suit
being actually and duly contested by the defendants. Thus Section 19(1) is
not attracted in the present case as the petitioners did not file written
statements. …..ABSCO Limited -V s. -The Artha Rin Adalat No.2, Dhaka &

Sections 10 and 19 |
Sections 10 and 19—Upon the grounds for ex-parte proceedings maturing
under section 10 there remains no scope under the scheme of the Ain for the
section 19 provisions for ex-parte hearing to equally come into play.
Section 19 in this regard is found to be predicated upon a due filing of
written statement taking place as per the provisions of section 10 and
permits of no ground or scope for being invoked in the opposite scenario of
filing of written statements not duly taking place as prescribed under
section 10 in that utter contingency. Section 10 is found to have a
self-contained response mechanism and procedure of its own, thereby, by
necessary construction making it an impossibility to further invoke the
section 19 provisions on ex-parte hearing and disposal. By that reason, in
the present case, the court having assumed jurisdiction to proceed with the
case ex-parte under section 10(1) of the Ain there resultantly remained no
legal sanction for the petitioners to further additionally opt to take
recourse to section 19 of the Ain given their initial failure to comply
with the provisions of section 10 of the Ain. .....ABSCO Limited vs Artha

after filing the Artha Rin Suit, in case of their failure to comply with
the provisions of section 12(1) of the Ain, but no such imperative is
provided in the law in the event of non-compliance of the provisions of
section 12(3) of the Ain by the Banks/Financial Institutions as to their
duty of selling or putting their best effort to sell the mortgaged and/or
hypothecated properties.
|
Dr. Kazi Sirazul Islam vs Artha Rin Adalat | 76 DLR 226 |
Section 12(1)(2)(3) and (6) |
While before filing Artharin Suit the Banks/Financial Institutions are competent to put a mortgaged/hypothecated property on auction for more than once, there is no scope for them (Banks/Financial Institutions) to invoke section 12(3) of the Ain for the second time during pendency of the Artharin Suit if they have truly failed to sell the mortgaged/ hypothecated property despite putting their best efforts before filing the Artharin Suit. And, when the Banks/Financial Institutions file Artharin Suit without invoking section 12(1) of the Ain, section 12(2) of the Ain directs them to invoke section 12(1) of the Ain during the trial of the suit, but in case of non-compliance of the provisions of section 12(3) of the Ain, there having no such provision in place similar to section 12(2) of the Ain, the Banks/Financial Institutions should not seek to invoke section 12(3) of the Ain after filing Artharin Suit, for, the Legislature has provided an alternative provision in section 12 (6) which dictates that the Adalat shall deduct the value of the mortgaged/hypothecated property from the decretal amount. .....Dr. Kazi Sirazul Islam vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 76 DLR 226. |

After filing the Artharin Suit if the Banks/Financial Institutions or any other defendant of the Artharin Suit can satisfy the Adalat that proceeding of section 12(3) of the Ain was stopped or harnessed by the mortgagor or the owner of the hypothecated property, during pendency of the Artharin suit the Adalat shall be competent to restart the proceeding under section 12(3) of the Ain upon halting the trial for a certain limited period by publishing fresh notices stating the reasons thereof, inasmuch as a cunning device adopted by a wicked mortgagor should not be allowed to defeat the scheme of enactment of section 12(3) of the Ain. .....Dr. Kazi Sirazul Islam vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 76 DLR 226. |

When a proceeding under section 12(3) of the Ain is intentionally frustrated by the mortgagor or by the owner of the hypothecated goods by filing an apparent meritless, fallacious and frivolous case/suit in any Court of law, the Adalat shall be competent to hold that the Bank's failure cannot by any stretch of imagination be covered within the expression “বিক্রয়ের চেষ্টা করিয়া ব্যর্থ না হইয়া, অর্থঋণ আদালতে কোন মামলা দায়ের করিবে না” as engraved in section 12(3) of the Ain. When the first auction under section 12(3) of the Ain by the Bank is frustrated by the mortgagor or borrower or guarantor by filing any case and, then, the Bank/Financial Institution files Artharin Suit, the filing of the Artharin Suit cannot be questioned later on by any of the parties (i.e. mortgagor/borrower/guarantor) on the ground that no auction was held by the Bank/Financial Institution before filing the Artharin Suit. .....Dr. Kazi Sirazul Islam vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 76 DLR 226. |

The order fixing the date of auction and publishing the auction notices for sale of the mortgaged property without selling the pledged goods and adjustment of the sale proceeds against the outstanding loan was illegal. The Bank appears to be irresponsible and negligent in selling the pledged goods, and the loss incurred because of not selling the goods, should not be borne by the petitioner. It will be just and proper, if the value of the pledged tea, which was under control of the Bank at the time of instituting the suit, is adjusted. .....Mohammad Ali vs Bangladesh Bank, 20 BLC 512. |

It has already been settled that the Artha Rin Adalat is a Civil Court having all the powers and jurisdiction under the Code of Civil Procedure subject to the provision of the said Artha Rin Adalat Ain. It has also been settled that said Ain provided that it is a civil Court with confined and limitation jurisdiction to deal with the Artha Rin cases and the law has been made for the purpose of realisation of money from the defaulting borrowers, accordingly the legislature has enacted such provision for depositing 50% of the decretal amount both in preferring appeal and in filing application against the ex parte decree. .....Anisur Rahman @ KM Ziaul Haque vs Government of Bangladesh, 12 BLC 22. |

The law is simple, when the bank, before filing of the suit had placed the property on auction and the said process failed, it means that the said process of auction ended there. In the aforesaid circumstances, the Artha Rin Adalat cannot direct the decree holder bank to sell the property to the defendant judgment debtor who did not come forward to purchase the property at the price quoted in the auction held before filing of the suit. It is in this Court's opinion that when the Court deducted the price of land from the claim of the bank under Section 12(6) of the Ain, the title of the land shall vest in the bank under Section 33(7) of the Ain as per provision contained in Section 12(7). .....Md.

upon the question of liability of the present petitioners as issues of law.

The Court before passing any judgment or order of finally disposing of the suit shall have to take into consideration the facts stated in the plaint and written statement of the parties and to determine that whether the defendants admit the claim of the plaintiff and also to determine whether there is any dispute between the parties as regards the facts as stated in the pleadings. When the Adalat passed the impugned judgement beyond the scope of law as provided for in section 13 of the Ain then it can be said that the same is without jurisdiction. But when it appears from the impugned judgment that the same is passed upon compiling with the provision of section 13 it cannot be said that the same is without jurisdiction. .....Md.

there is no legal mandate to stop or dismiss the Artha Rin suit if the
trial of the same be not concluded within the period of 90 days and further
extended period of 30 days. The Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 has been
promulgated by the Parliament incorporating different provisions
including stipulated period of disposal of the suit. The only purpose is
for speedy disposal of the suit, otherwise the defaulting borrowers of the

the Ain does not provide any consequential effect or procedure or resulting

it has crossed Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 1990 and now continuing under the

On 24-4-2003, the decree holder made an application for an Order making the preliminary decree dated 1-6-97 final. The application was allowed by the Artha Rin Adalat and on the said date the final decree was sealed and signed. Held: In a writ of certiorari writ cannot be issued to correct the mistake or wrong done in exercise of the power under the CP Code but in instance case the Artha Rin Adalat passed the impugned order and exercised its power going beyond the statutory period of limitation which cannot be otherwise excluded and as such the order is without jurisdiction and is liable to be struck down. .....M/s Brick Linkers Ltd vs Joint District Judge, 15 BLT (2007) 99. |

In view of the overwhelming evidence regarding the arrival of the goods and after releasing the same kept in the Bank's godown for 9 years had to sell the same in public auction and Bank informed his client regularly in each stage, it can not be accepted the contention that the defendants were not aware of all these things. The plaint of other Suit No. 2 of 1994 shows that the defendants set up a counter claim of more than Taka Fifty Lac and some odds. Apparently nature of claims were baseless and there is hardly any foundation in the evidence as well. The defendants' suit of compensation and damages as set up in other Suit No. 2 of 94 has got no merit. The learned Judge of the Artha Rin Adalat has no jurisdiction to entertain other Suit No. 2 of 1994 under general law along with the Money Suit filed by the financial institution under the Special law. Under the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003, Section 18 (2) also stands as a clear bar to entertain any suit or counter claim against the claim of the financial institution. The learned Judge of the Artha Rin Adalat assumed illegal jurisdiction over the said other suit and held the trial of the civil suit without having any jurisdiction. Keeping consistency with the section 50(2) of the Artha Rin Adalat, 2003 simple interest was awarded at the rate of 12% per annum on the principal amount from the date of filing the suit till realization subject to maximum payable under section 47 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 meaning thereby the simple interest payable shall not exceed 200% of the original claim. .....Pubali Bank Ltd.

Section 19(1) |
When in an Artharin suit the defendant-side would not participate in the hearing, what would the Adalat do with the written statement? The normal presumption would be that by his non-participation in the hearing he was not placing before the Adalat his claims, which were raised in the written statements. And keeping this scenario in mind, the Legislature made the provision in Section 19(1) of the Ain, 2003 for the Adalat to dispose of the suit exparte (একতরফাসূত্র). The expression “একতরফাসূত্র” in Section 19(1) of the Ain, 2003 has been purposefully employed debarring the Adalat from considering the defendant’s case. ...Osman Gazi Chy Vs.

Section 19(1) |
Whether the Artharin Adalats should go for ex-parte disposal; From the language employed in Section 19(1) of the Ain, 2003, the literal meanings of the language gives us two situations, namely; on the date of hearing if the defendant does not register his/her presence before the Adalat by filing Hazira (আদালতে অনুপস্হিত থাকিলে) or if after recording his/her presence in paper, s/he is found absent when the case is taken up for hearing (ডাকিয়া বিবাদিকে উপস্হিত পাওয়া না গেলে), to proceed towards disposal of a case exparte. However, the spirit that derives from the provision of Section 19(1) of the Ain, 2003 is that if the Adalat finds that the manner and style of conducting the case by the defendant is to avoid or refrain from hearing (শুনানী না করা), the Adalat should go for exparte disposal of the suit. ...Osman Gazi Chy Vs.

Adalat shall have to consider either the plaint only or the written
statement only in the backdrop of impossibility of disposal of a suit
solely on the basis of written statement. Furthermore, disposal of a suit
solely based on the written statement will render the provisions of Section

For a registration of a miscellaneous case to set aside an ex-parte decree, it is required to deposit 10% of the decreetal amount either by cash or bank draft, pay order or by other method permissible under Negotiable Instrument Act as security. On the other hand the petitioner deposited 25% of the outstanding amount under section 34(6) of the Ain which is much more then the decretal amount. The petitioners for the purpose of releasing himself, under section 34(6) deposited 25% of the outstanding amount and was enlarged on bail. Therefore, by legal fiction we can hold that he has also deposited more then 10% as required under section 19(3) of the Ain. The law is clear that 10% of the decreetal amount is needed to register a miscellaneous case under section 19(3) of the Ain. Unhesitatingly, we can hold that it was absolutely a legal deposit to meet up legal necessity within the meaning of section 19(3) of the Ain. The deposit must be treated as a valid one under the same provision of law. .....Mizanur Rahman (Md) vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 71 DLR DLR 454 |

The reason for inscribing the provisions of depositing money and approaching the trial Court within a stipulated time for set-ting aside an exparte decree in the Ain, 2003 is to oblige the loanees to co-operate with the Adalat in disposing of the suits timely and, thereby, warn them not to play foul with the Adalat. The above preconditions have been put upon the loanees with an aim to discourage the defaulters not to play dilatory tactics in disposal of the Artharin suits. All that the Legislature in-tended is to minimise the abuse of the process of the Court in the garb of filing a restoration application, for, without depositing money, the unscrupulous litigants were approaching the Adalat indiscriminately compelling the Courts to engage in the fruitless matters.

Section 20, 33(7), 57 |
The contention of the learned Advocate of the petitioner that upon issuance of the certificate under section 33(7) of the Ain, 2003, the Executing Court has nothing to do but to dispose of the execution case finally is not based on any rationality. For the sake of argument, if the Court becomes functus officio, how later on the Court will entertain another execution case or any other application for handing over possession if it remains with the judgment-debtor. The Court may correct its own mistakes by invoking, the umbrella provision, embodied under section 57 of the Ain, 2003 to do justice and to undo injustice despite the provisions of section 20 of the Ain, 2003. It has to remember that the provisions of section 20 of the Ain, 2003 is neither absolute nor sacrosanct nor untouchable. The parties to the suit cannot and should not suffer for the mistake committed by the Court itself. On perusal of the entire edifice of the Ain, 2003, it becomes visible to us that the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 shall be applicable subject to not being inconsistent with the provisions of the Ain, 2003. The Adalat may review its own order by invoking section 57 of the Ain, 2003 with extreme circumspection in an exceptional case. …City Bank Ltd Vs.

Section 6 of the Arthan Rin Adalat Ain , 1990 or for that matter Section 20 of Ain,2003 create a bar in proceeding with a subsequent suit making a prayer for setting aside an ex-parte decree even on the ground of fraud or even with a prayer for another declaration for the Power of Attorney and Memorandum of Deposit of Title Documents as forged, fabricated and false rather the only remedy available for the opposite party No.l was to go for an application under Order IX Rule 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure or an appeal under Section 7 or Section 41 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain,1990 and 2003 respectively- Per Nozrul Islam Chowdhury, J (Agreeing with Sheikh Abdul Awal J). Going through the judgment referred to by the learned Advocate for the opposite party No.1 particularly the one reported in 56 DLR 588 I find that in the instant case both the prayers made in the plaint could have been decided by the Adalat itself. Had there been an appeal against the same, under Section 7 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain 1990 or Section 41 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain,2003 , therefore, the question of absence of jurisdiction as contemplated in the case reported in 56 DLR is totally absent as such not applicable. The two other decisions relied upon by the opposite party, are also for the same reason namely both the prayer made in the plaint in Title Suit No.31 of 2002 are well within the jurisdiction or competence of Artha Rin Court established under the Arthan Rin Adalat Ain 1990 and 2003 , therefore, none of the aforesaid two cases can be of any help for the opposite party No.1, on the other hand, going through the aforesaid judgment referred to by the learned Advocate for the petitioner I find that in view of the position that section 6 of the Arthan Rin Adalat Ain , 1990 or for that matter Section 20 of Ain,2003 create a bar in proceeding with a subsequent suit making a prayer for setting aside an exparte decree even on the ground of fraud or even with a prayer for another declaration for the Power of Attorney and Memorandum of Deposit of Title Documents as forged, fabricated and false rather the only remedy available for the opposite party No.l was to go for an application under Order IX Rule 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure or an appeal under Section 7 or Section 41 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain,1990 and 2003 respectively, therefore, I find that the submissions made by the learned Advocate for the petitioner has got substance , as such accepted. .....Arab Bangladesh Bank Ltd.

The Respondent Banks Plaintiff instituted Artha Rin Case and the defendant petitioner filed written statement and thereafter filed an application under section 21 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 and the said application was rejected on the plea that there is no unconditional consent from the plaintiff bank. Held: Since the whole purpose of enacting the law is for recovery of loan and as such the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 has been incorporated upon consolidating the existing law of 1990, which was firstly enacted in 1990 and since under the existing law it appeared that by filing suits or execution cases money could be recovered but not in a short span of time, the legislature has incorporated the provision of chapter 5 in the new ain for easy recovery of money within a short time and as such alternative dispute resolution chapter 5 has been incorporated in the present Ain allowing the parties to ask for amicable settlement under section 22 and/or under section 21 the Adalat can invoke it if it is deemed fit and proper on perusal of the pleadings of both the parties. The order which has been complained of is hereby declared to be illegal, without lawful authority and is of no legal effect. .....Rana Appearels Ltd. vs Bangladesh, 15 BLT 104. |

Sections 22, 23 & 24 |
Held; It is this Court's view that a specially established tribunal under a special law has wholly and primarily to confine itself with the dictate of that law to the fullest extent possible. It is not open to the Adalat as a special tribunal, to serve the purpose of its convenience or otherwise, to encourage instead a selective application of the provisions of the law contributing to the other provisions being relegated to the background and becoming effectively dead letters of the law. The scenario, therefore, is not only of a misconstruction of the law but of the denial of the true legislative intent. It has been this Court's experience to note repeatedly that Sections 22, 23 and 24 have been relegated to the background in inverse ratio to Sections 33(5) and (7) gaining undue prominence before the Artha Rin Adalat. That situation needs to be addressed and remedied with some sense of urgency if the Act is to be permitted to attain its full legislative objective. In that regard, it is the finding of this Court that Section 22, in particular, manifests a highly formalized and structured hyper-efficient system of ADR that presently rests uncomfortably atop a culture of misconstruction and misinterpretation of the law with impunity. Resultantly, an important Chapter of the law, i.e. Chapter V of the Act is in its entirety being held in perpetual abeyance and risks, in the long run, becoming wholly redundant. .....Md.

This Court finds, from an ingrained inability to appreciate that the core objective of the Act at debt recovery must not invariably without further qualification entail the acquisition of a defaulter/judgment-debtor's property. But undue conservatism per se or misconceived reservations either to explore avenues of equitable alternative amicable settlement processes endorsed by the Act itself or to exercise its inherent jurisdiction, for reasons not entirely evident to this Court, operate regrettably to bind the Adalat's hand as it were. …..Sree Proshanta Kumar Sarkar -Vs.- MD, Agrani Bank Ltd. 3 ALR(2014)(1) 175 |

Held; The jurisdictional distinction between Section 22(1) and 23(1) notably is that it is only in the latter instance that the will of the parties becomes an important factor in initiating the second renewed phase at mediation. That subjective element is notably wholly absent in Section 22(1). In fact this serves as a notice on the parties to take the initial exercise at a mediated settlement under Section 22 very seriously and not to be whimsical and cavalier about it given that a renewed attempt at such a mediated settlement is contingent on the all important factor of the approval of the Adalat. Should that approval not be forthcoming the parties can only lament about a missed opportunity under Section 22. From another perspective, Section 23 reiterates and fortifies the Act's scheme reflected in Section 22 being that of primacy of consideration to be given by the Adalat and the parties to ensure a mediated settlement of claim at the very first opportunity without any exception. .....Md.

Rule 58 of Order XXI of the Code of Civil Procedure requires an executing Court to investigate the claim or objection of an objector as if he was a party to suit. Such investigation is dispensed with only when the court considers the claim or objection was designedly or unnecessarily delayed. The court did not find the claim or objection of AB Bank was delayed. In the facts and circumstances of the case and in the interest of justice, the Fourth Artha Rin Adalat which now holds the property must dispose of both execution cases under section 27 of the Ain. In the result, the appeal is disposed of without however any order as to cost. Third Artha Rin Adalat is directed to send the decree dated 29-7-99 passed by it in Title Suit No. 125 of 1992 to the Fourth Artha Rin Adalat for execution and Fourth Artha Rin Adalat is directed to execute both the decrees in accordance with law.

Sections 27 and 33(1) |
In addition to these situations the executing Court may also publish the auction notice in a local daily newspaper. In view of such requirement of section 33(1) of the Ain, it is practically not possible for the Adalat in Dhaka to send its process server or dhuly (drummer) to the territorial jurisdiction of another Artha Rin Adalat exercising jurisdiction in another district to fulfill the said requirement smoothly. The reasons is the order of the Executing Court cannot be executed beyond its territorial limits for publicity by the dhuly without the assistance of the process server or dhuly of another Court in whose jurisdiction the order is to be publicized and without compliance with such requirement the auction sale cannot be practically and legally held. The intention of the legislature as provided in sections 27 and 33(1) of the Ain is that when a decree is passed by a competent Artha Rin Adalat, the execution case can be instituted in that Court under section 27 of the Ain but if the decree has to be satisfied by way of auction publicity has to be undertaken both at the national and local level where the property is situated and for that purpose, the execution case needs to be transferred to another Court under section 27(1) of the Ain. The word “may” occurring in section 39 (1) or the expression, “অন্য যে আদালতে প্রেরণ করে” occurring in section 27(1) of the Ain expresses an impression about the discretion of the Court where the execution case is instituted. In consideration of the whole scheme of the Ain with regard to territorial limit or jurisdiction of an Artha Rin Adalat over a district and the mandatory requirement of local publicity under section 33(1) of the Ain, High Court Division cannot but to conclude that in relation to an auction sale of the property situated in another district an Artha Rin Adalat is under a legal obligation to send a case to the concerned Adalat of the other District where the property is situated. …..Md.

Such investigation is dispensed with only when the court considers the claim or objection was designedly or unnecessarily delayed. The court did not find the claim or objection of AB Bank was delayed. In the facts and circumstances of the case and in the interest of justice, the Fourth Artha Rin Adalat which now holds the property must dispose of both execution cases under section 27 of the Ain. In the result, the appeal is disposed of without however any order as to cost. Third Artha Rin Adalat is directed to send the decree dated 29-7-99 passed by it in Title Suit No. 125 of 1992 to the Fourth Artha Rin Adalat for execution and Fourth Artha Rin Adalat is directed to execute both the decrees in accordance with law. .....Arab Bangladesh Bank Ltd vs Janata Bank, 11 BLC 186. |

Since there was no suit of the on Financial Institutions pending before any Commercial Court after 1990. Thereafter, Artha Rin Adalat Ain 2003 having come into force on 1-5-2003 upon repealing the Ain of 1990, the said execution case was transferred to the Artha Rin Adalat constituted under the Ain 2003 pursuant to section 60(3) of the said Ain. As such, dismissal of the said execution case on 16-5-2003 for default was made by the Adalat constituted under Ain 2003. Hence, filing of the second execution case on 13-11-2003 is very much within one year of the dismissal of the earlier case and is wholly within the scope of section 28(3) of the said Ain of 2003. Thus, there is no illegality in filing of the execution case and continuation of the proceeding of the same. Moreover, the time limit fixed by section 37 of the Ain 2003, for disposal of execution case within 150 days being "directory" not "mandatory", as decided in Writ Petition No. 7615 of 2005 (M Serajul Islam vs Bangladesh) by this bench, there is no illegality in the proceedings of the execution case. .....Khurshid Alam (Md) vs Judge, Artha Rin Adalat-1, 12 BLC 592. |

Held; Since, the Second Execution case is filed within one year of disposal of the First Execution Case and furthermore, when it is decided by this Court that time frame for disposal of the Execution Case is directory in nature and not at all mandatory, therefore, the Section 28(4) of the Ain, 2003 has no manner of application in the present suit. The suit is already in the ambit of Section 28(3) of the Ain, 2003. The provisions of Section 28 of the Ain, 2003 came into force on 01.05.2003 and Decree Execution Case No.32 of 1997 was filed long before the Ain, 2003.

Since there was no suit of the Financial Institutions pending before any Commercial Court after 1990. Thereafter, Artha Rin Adalat Ain 2003 having come into force on 1-5-2003 upon repealing the Ain of 1990, the said execution case was transferred to the Artha Rin Adalat constituted under the Ain 2003 pursuant to section 60(3) of the said Ain. As such, dismissal of the said execution case on 16-5-2003 for default was made by the Adalat constituted under Ain 2003. Hence, filing of the second execution case on 13-11-2003 is very much within one year of the dismissal of the earlier case and is wholly within the scope of section 28(3) of the said Ain of 2003. Thus, there is no illegality in filing of the execution case and continuation of the proceeding of the same. Moreover, the time limit fixed by section 37 of the Ain 2003, for disposal of execution case within 150 days being "directory" not "mandatory", as decided in Writ Petition No. 7615 of 2005 (M Serajul Islam vs Bangladesh) by this bench, there is no illegality in the proceedings of the execution case.

For filing such an Execution Case Section 5 of the Limitation Act is strictly not applicable because the Execution Petition should be filed within the time period originally fixed under the Act failing which the Decree Holder in the eyes of law had exhausted his lawful remedies, as such, it cannot thereafter, enforce its rights as enshrined under the Decree, Order, etc. passed by the Court in its favour. …..Dewan Ruhul Amin Vs.- The Artha Rin (Mahmudul Hoque J) 6 ALR - 2015(2)97 |

Chapter VI of Ain 2003 deals with execution matter. Section 28 of Ain prescribes limitation only in respect of filing of Execution Cases arising out of Artha Rin Case. It prescribes limitation for filing the Execution Case by giving a positive and specific consequence in as much as if the same is not filed within time specified in the section itself the same would be rejected outright. It certainly bears a mandatory implication. The construction of the section implies that the Execution Case would be barred by limitation if it is not filed within time. The legislatures in its wisdom connotes the mandatory application of section 28 consciously. The legislatures to make a particular enactment mandatory, used some phraseologies to give it a mandatory meaning. .....Shitalakhaya Ice and Cold Storage Pvt. Ltd vs Artha Rin Adalat, 64 DLR 487. |

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the provision of section 32(2) of the Ain, the petitioner is required to furnish security to the extent of 25% of the decretal amount to maintain an application under the Ain. .....Rashida Mahabub vs IFIC Bank Ltd, 13 BLC 78. |

at its preliminary consideration it is more reasonable that while issuing
notice under section 32(1) upon the decree-holder to appear and contest the
application it shall direct the applicant to deposit the security under
section 32(2) of the Ain within the period of time so has been fixed by it,
and that the date so has been fixed must be before the appearance of the

As per section 33(2) of the Act, the Petitioner has forfeited all rights and privileges upon his failure to deposit the balance amount of bid money within the stipulated period of ten days time. Furthermore, there is no scope to interpret the law to give the Petitioner a technical or tactical advantage of a ninety-day extension in the name of Artha Rin Adalat (Amendment) Ordinance, 2007. This is because equity follows the appropriate rules of law and does not replace or violate the law. Therefore, the Writ Petitioner may not now be allowed to frustrate justice on the ground of mere technical interpretation of any aspect of law and equity. ...M. A. Hashem Vs.

It transpires from the order sheets that the Executing Court did not comply with the provisions of section 33(1) of the Ain, 2003. It is a mandatory requirement to publish an auction notice in a widely circulated daily newspaper. The daily Destiny has not got no existence at present and undisputedly, at the relevant time it was not a widely circulated daily newspaper. As the auction notice was not published in a widely circulated daily newspaper, therefore, prospective bidders could not participate in the bid. Moreover, the decree holder-Bank did not take any step under section 33(4) of the Ain, 2003 to sell out the mortgage property on auction and thereby, negated the provision of section 33(4) of the Ain, 2003. …City Bank Ltd Vs.

Section 33 |
On meaningful reading of sub-sections (5), (7), (7Ka) and (7Kha) of section
33 of the Ain, 2003, it transpires that where the possession of property
requires to be obtained through intervention of the Court, the decree
holder has to file an application in writing to the Executing Court to hand
over possession of the said property to the decree holder or the auction
purchaser as the case may be and before handing over possession of the
property, the Executing Court shall be reassured that it is the property
which was lawfully mortgaged by its original owner against the loan
liabilities or which was attached under the original title and possession
of the judgment-debtor for execution of the decree. The provisions of
sub-sections 7Ka and 7Kha of section 33 of the Ain, 2003 were incorporated
by the Artha Rin Adalat Ain (Amendment) Act, 2010 (Act XVI of 2010) in
order to protect the property of the actual owner. In this case,
admittedly, the possession of the mortgage property remains with the
judgment-debtor. If the execution case is disposed of upon issuance of
certificate of title, the decree holder will not be able to obtain the
possession without the intervention of the Court. Therefore, the contention
of the petitioner is that upon issuance of certificate of title under
section 33(7) of the Ain, 2003, the Executing Court has become functus
officio is fallacious and not based on cogent reasons. …City Bank Ltd Vs.

It appears from section 33(1) of the Ain that for the purpose of auction sale it requires at least three preparations. Firstly, publication of an auction notice in at least one widely circulated National Bangla Daily. Secondly, fixing of the auction notice in the notice board of the executing Court, and lastly beating of drum in the locality. The aforesaid actions invariably requires the beating/drum in the locally in which the property is situated. The purpose of such requirement is that the people of the locality must know that the property is in the process of an auction sale pursuant to a competent Court’s decree. …..Md.

The High Court Division found that the balancing act that was the intended purport of Section 33 in its earlier form, and as chiefly reflected in Section 33(4) through to Section 33(6kha) by dint of the post-2010 amendments, has continued undisturbed and unaltered since 2003 without changing or altering the character of the law. In this regard, the provision in Section 33(6ka) providing for a second execution case is found to lean heavily in a judgment-debtor's favour in prescribing the exclusion of value of the land or its reasonable value in determining the amount to be fetched in the Section 33(5) auction process. By that reason Section 33(6ka), in our view, is also a protective umbrella available to the judgment- debtor under Section 33(5). …..Nahar Enterprise -Vs.-Artha RinAdalat No. 3, Dhaka and others. 4 ALR 2014(2) 363 |

From a combined reading of sub-sections of section 34 of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 it transpires that the Adalat is empowered to pass an order of warrant of arrest/civil imprisonment directly when no auction sale is possible to be held for any reason. The auction sale notice was published in the 'Daily Sonar Desh' on 19-2-2004 mentioning date of auction sale on 23-2-2004 at 3-00 PM but the property in question was not sold due to non-availability of the auction purchaser. Therefore, the contention of the learned Advocate for the petitioner that no attempt was made to sell the property as per mandatory provision of section 34(9) of the Ain, 2003 by the respondent No. 2 before passing the impugned order of civil imprisonment is wholly untenable. .....Provat Kumar Das vs Agrani Bank, 15 BLC 180. |

The petitioners did not appear before the Court. But within a period of one month from the date of issuance of the impugned order they have filed the present revisional application and obtained the present Rule and an interim order of stay.

Sub-section (7) has also given a special leverage on the decree holder. According to the said provisions, notwithstanding the provisions under sub-sections (4) and(5), the decree holder will be at liberty to file an application for conferment of title on it by the Adalat, and once such application is made, the Adalat will even refrain from following the proceedings under sub-sections (4) and (5) and will confer such title on the decree holder through a certificate of title issued by it declaring such title. The only hurdle in the said provisions under sub-section (7) is that the provisions under sub-sections (1), (2), 2(Ka), 2(Kha), 2(Ga) and (3) of section 33 cannot be jeopardized. In other words, it recognizes the mandatory nature of the 1st auction in view of sub-sections (1), (2), 2(Ka), 2(Kha), 2(Ga) and (3). Thus, once the 1st auction is done and it fails for any reason, the decree-holder bank will be at liberty to either proceed for the 2nd auction and then for conferment of right to possession and enjoyment under sub-section (5) or it can ask for conferment of title under sub-section (7). This option of conferment of title can be exercised by the decree holder either immediately after the 1st auction or after conferment of right to possession and enjoyment of the mortgaged property or even after conclusion of the 2nd auction, though un successfully. This intention of the Legislature to give almost a free leverage to the decree holder is clear from the provisions mentioned under sub-section 6(Kha) and section (7) of section 33. .....Mosharaf Hossain (Md) vs Bangladesh, 67 DLR 199. |

The decree holder-bank filed the second execution case in violation of the provision of the Ain and obtained the order of civil imprisonment against the writ-petitioner, which appears to have been passed beyond the scope of law. .....Mehmood Alam Nadim vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 28 BLC 538 |

Section 33(6)(Kha)(7) |
Legislature has deliberately given sub-sections 6(Kha) and (7) a separate status. Thus, the provisions under sub-section 6(kha) are such that they can be followed even not withstanding whatever contained in the entire section 33. This means, once the right to enjoyment and possession of the mortgaged property is conferred on the decree holder, it will be at liberty to even immediately apply for conferment of title under sub-section (7). In which case, it will not be obligatory on it to try to sell the property through 2nd, 3rd or 4th auctions. To obtain that special status under sub-section 6(kha), the precondition is that the right to possession and enjoyment of the property is conferred on the decree holder in view of sub-section (5). .....Mosharaf Hossain (Md) vs Bangladesh, 67 DLR 199. |

Title of mortgaged property—Section 33(5) of the Ain, 2003 provides that after due compliance of sub-sections (1)(2)(3) and (4) of section 33 of the Ain, if it is not possible to sell the mortgaged property in auction, then the right and possession of the mortgaged property will be vested upon the bank. Consequently, at the instance of the bank the Adalat rightly passed an order conferring title of the petitioner's mortgaged property upon the bank and directed to issue a certificate to that effect. .....Setara Begum vs Al-Arafah Islami Bank Ltd, 61 DLR 791. |

Transfer of title under section 33(7) does not indeed envisage the right of foreclosure. In the scheme of the Act, foreclosure in the sense of a limitation on the right of redemption can only arise when associated with an auction sale contemplated in section 5(4). Beyond that, section 37(7) appears to this Court to operate independently of section 5(4) and the provisions in section 33(7) in not contemplating a transfer by sale must be found also not to envisage the existence of the corresponding right of foreclosure. The right of redemption under section 33(7) is always found to be alive and extant. .....World Resources Limited vs Artha Rin Adalat No. 3, Dhaka, 66 DLR 637. |

The provisions under sub-section (7) have made it clear that the Legislature wanted to give a free leverage to the decree holder bank or financial institution to apply for the conferment of title at any stage after the 1st auction is done and failed. Therefore, just holding of the 2nd auction will not be a bar against the decree-holder bank preventing it from applying to get the title of the mortgaged property under sub-section (7). .....Mosharaf Hossain (Md) vs Bangladesh, 67 DLR 199. |

The contradictory decisions as it could be found in IFIC Bank's case ' 15 BLT 425 and Salma Begum's case 63 DLR does not apply in the instant case at all.

In 2020 the mouza rate is Taka 80,93,000.

But this position as to non-delivery of possession will no way help the petitioner to question the auction sale as well as to set-aside the auction sale when a right to property was accrued in favour of bonafide purcharer for value long back in 2009. .....Enayet Hossain vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 29 BLC 74. |

All the substituted heirs of the principal debtor, as well as the third party mortgagor and the third party guarantor, are exempted from civil imprisonment. It transpires to the High Court Division that for ordering civil imprisonment against a judgment-debtor (দায়িক) for compelling him to satisfy the decree, the legislature does not subject the heirs of the principal debtor, the third party mortgagor and the third party guarantor; the legislature makes the heirs, for the purpose of this section liable only to the extent of the property, not to the extent to their body. The legislature does not subject the heirs, who were not present or involved with the sanctioning of the loan, to civil imprisonment to satisfy the decree. Therefore, the High Court Division hold that all the substituted heirs of the principal debtor, as well as the third party mortgagor and the third party guarantor, are exempted from civil imprisonment. .....Iqbal Mahmud and others. -Vs.- Agrani Bank Limited and others.

From a combined reading of those sub-sections to section 34 of the Ain, 2003 it transpires that the Adalat is competent enough to award civil imprisonment to the extent of 6(six) months to the judgment debtor/s for recovery of decretal amount on an application filed by the decree-holder Bank when no auction sale is possible to be held for any reason. On a careful exmination of the application under section 34 of the Ain, 2003, it appears that in the application under section 34 of the Ain, 2003 for issuing warrant of arrest against the judgment debtors the concerned official/authority of the Bank neither put his signature nor made any verification/affidavit thereto and therefore, it cannot be said that the application in question was filed by the decree-holder-Bank as per provision of section 34(1) of the Ain, 2003. In the result, the Rule is made absolute without any order as to cost. The impugned order dated 28-9-2004 insorfar as it relates to warrant of arrest is hereby declared to have been made without lawful authority and is of no legal effect. However, the decree-holder-Bank shall still approach before the Adalat for issuance of warrant of arrest as per provisions of section 34(1) of the Ain, 2003 if he so likes. .....Sheikh Nazmul Haque vs Bangladesh, 14 BLC 107. |

Since the legislature has authorised the Adalat vide section 34 of the Ain of 2003 to issue warrant of arrest to detain him in civil prison as a mode of recovery of the decretal amount speedily hence it is not unjust, unfair or unreasonable, resulting to declare it ultra vires the Article 31 of the Constitution. It is to be remembered that reasonable and non-arbitrary exercise of decision is an inbuilt requirement of good piece of legislation which cannot be knocked down by the Court which will go to undermine the act of parliament rather to be reduced to oligarchy of judges which is neither desirable nor can it be brought within the scheme of the Constitution. In view of the above, there is no requirement to issue another notice before issuance of the process of arrest under section 34(1) of the Ain of 2003 at the execution stage in the name of natural justice. .....ABM Shirajum Monir vs Subordinate Judge, 14 BLC 716. |

Artha Rin Adalat Ain, which is a special law, specifically fixed the maximum period of sentence up to which a person can be detained in the civil imprisonment is 6 (six) months. This is the maximum sentence and also the minimum because if we glean section 34(1) which enjoins that a person can be detained in the civil jail up to 6 (six) months and then section (5) of section 34 clearly provides for two situations in a disjunctive manner (1) that a person can be confined in the civil jail till the realization of the entire decretal amount or (2) till serving 6 (six) months in the custody, whichever is earlier, that is to say that if a person has been detained in the civil custody for a period of 6 (six) months and during the said period, the decretal amount has been paid up in its entirety then at once he will be released from the civil imprisonment. But if the decretal amount is not paid off then he has to suffer civil imprisonment up to 6 (six) months. .....Janata Bank Limited vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 71 DLR 487 |

Therefore, it is evident that authority was given to Md Harunur Rashid by the Bank on 9-1-2008 and the application was filed by Md Harunur Rashid on 3-4-2008 before the Adalat for issuance of warrant of arrest against the Judgment-debtors by virtue of the said authorization letter. On examination of the said application it appears that there in no illegality in the said application rather it has been filed in consonance with the provision of the section 34 (1) of the Ain. .....Manik K Bhattacherjee vs Artha Rin Adalat, 16 BLC 195. |

On close appraisal of the materials on record it transpires to that after issuance of warrant of arrest dated 13-11-2005 the Judgment-debtor-petitioner did not appear in the Court below. He remained fugitive and being fugitive he obtained the present Rule. It is well settled that a fugitive has no right to seek any kind of redress as against his grievance of issuance of warrant of arrest. .....Bashir Ullah Master vs Bangladesh, 61 DLR 760. |

Otherwise, the provision of section 34(9)(10) of the Ain is to be followed before taking action under section 34 (1) of the Ain. .....AKM Tofazzel Hossain vs Rupali Bank Ltd, 64 DLR 435. |

It was the responsibility of the Adalat to take initiatives for auction sale of those moveable properties first before invoking power under section 34(1) of the Ain. In the absence of the process issuance of the order of warrant of arrest is palpably illegal for being passed in violation of section 34(9) of the Ain. .....Mohammad Saheed vs Government of Bangladesh, 66 DLR 254. |

In the instant case warrant of arrest was issued against the Judgment-debtor in execution proceedings under section 34(1) of the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 in situation when no intending purchaser was forth coming pursuant to the attempts to sell the pledged property the learned judges of the High Court division found nothing wrong with the impugned order and held that the issuance of warrant of arrest against Judgment-debtor to compel him to pay the decretal dues is not dependent on the compliance with the provisions of subsection (5), (6), and (7) of section 33. .....MA Jaher vs Sonali Bank, 13 MLR 64. |

From a combined reading of the Ain 2003 as a whole, we find that the intention of the legislature is also to protect the rights of the substituted heirs of mortgagor and guarantor. Therefore, we hold that the Provisions of section 34(2) of the Ain 2003 are squarely applicable in respect of the substituted heirs of mortgagor and guarantor. .....Akramuzzaman (Md) alias Babu vs Artha Rin Adalat No. 1 Rajbari, 61 DLR 638. |

If no property is mortgaged then section 34(10) comes into play. .....Ali Ajgar vs Bangladesh represented by the Secretary Ministry of Finance, 69 DLR 505. |

Section 34(9)(10) |
Since the provision so enunciated in section 34(10) clearly provides that, if it is not possible to hold a single auction sale under section 34(9) of the Ain in that case, the judgment-debtors can be arrested and put in Civil Prison. While legislate, sub-section 10 of section 34, the legislature very consciously foresaw that if there remains no property of the borrower to mortgage with the creditor-bank in such a posture, Court can clothe with the authority to issue warrant of arrest and detain the judgment-debtors in Civil Prison to compel the judgment-debtors to repay the decreetal dues. On going through the provision of section 34 we also find that, the legislature does not differentiate the borrower and guarantor in the event of issuing warrant of arrest and to detain in Civil Prison rather in every places in section 34 of 'the Ain' it denotes the word "judgment- debtor." .....Abdul Hafiz Salawat vs First Court of Artha Rin Adalat, Chittagong (Spl Original) 23 BLC 260 |

The petitioner being a guarantor is not at all absolved from the liability and question of application of the section is redundant since no property has been mortgaged with the bank.

Since the provision of sub-section 10 of section 34 of the Ain empower the Adalat to issue warrant of arrest as well as to detain the judgement-debtor in default to re-paying the decreetal dues to the creditor bank, no illegality has been committed to issue warrant of arrest against the petitioner to compel him in repaying the decreetal dues. .....Abdul Hafiz Salawat vs First Court of Artha Rin Adalat, Chittagong (Spl Original) 23 BLC 260 |

In view of the provision of section 44(2) of the Ain of 2003 as well as the decisions of our Apex Court, the impugned orders in these revisional applications passed by the executing Court are interlocatory orders and hence revision under section 115 of the Code is not maintainable.

Md. Jahirul Hoque Vs. Judge, Artha Rin Adalat, Chattogram & ors | 17 SCOB [2023] HCD 20 |
Section 34(1) |
We find that the Artha Rin Adalat as a civil Court itself can pass order of
civil detention under section 34(1) of the Act, 2003 against the Judgment
Debtor and to execute/effect the civil detention, the Adalat is issuing
warrant of arrest in order to make him available for serving out the
awarded civil detention. Section 35 only provides that in issuing warrant
of arrest, the Adalat shall be deemed to be a Magistrate of a 1st class.
But nowhere in the provision, the applicability of the Code of Criminal
Procedure is provided. However, in the last part of section 35 although the
Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 is mentioned but it is related to
prescribed Form of warrant of arrest and other matters for the time being
until prescribed Form is prepared by the Artha Rin Adalat. It does not mean
that the applicability of the Code of Criminal Procedure has been provided
in issuing warrant of arrest. ...Md. Jahirul Hoque Vs. Judge, Artha Rin

We are led to hold that the petitioner, a Judgment Debtor can not be treated as a fugitive accused and so, he did not require to surrender to the concerned Court before challenging the impugned order awarding civil detention under section 34 of the Act, 2003.

It appears that the time-frame for disposal of the execution case has been provided for in section 37 of the Act. But it would appear from the other provisions of the Act, notably section 49, that in case of allowing the installment an execution case can be extended beyond 150 days and at least for the next three years from the date of allowing an application filed by the judgment-debtor, praying for installments and agreed to by the decree-holder. In such a case, the period of time under section 37 of the Act would be subject to the application of the provisions of section 49 as envisaged under sub-section 2 of section 37 of the Act. It is apparent that the requirement of time-frame for disposal of an execution case, as stated in section 37, is merely directory and not mandatory.

been redeemed and the execution proceeding was withdrawn following an
amicable settlement between the Judgment-Debtors and the Decree- Holder,

In view of the well settled principle of law as to the question of maintainability of the Writ Petition, there is no hesitation to hold that the petitioner has miserably failed to cross the first hurdle, inasmuch as Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 is a special law and special provision having been provided in Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 for preferring appeal against the judgment and decree passed by the Artha Rin Adalat.

Section 41(1)(2) |
As there is a mandatory provision to deposit 50% of the decreetal amount to prefer appeal, the appeal is not at all maintainable and in fact there is no appeal in the eye of law. In the absence of 50% of the decreetal amount deposit to prefer appeal there is no existence of appeal in the eye of law. On perusal of section 41 of the Ain, 2003 it appears that appeal would lie to the High Court Division against any order or decree passed by Artha Rin Adalat within 60 days subject to fulfillment of condition mentioned therein, that is deposit of 50% of the decreetal amount and submit with the memorandum of appeal the proof of such deposit and it has further been provided that in the absence of submitting such proof with memorandum of appeal no appeal filed under sub-section (1) of section 41 shall be accepted for any action. .....Shamsul Alam (Md) vs Md Liyakat Ullah (Civil), 72 DLR 17 |

It appears that the legislature has set down the condition in section 41(2) of the Ain that 50% of the decretal dues at the time of preferring appeal or at the time of filing an application must be deposited which is a precondition for preferring an appeal. Such precondition being imposed by the Parliament, who has the power to take away any vested right by clear and unambiguous language, the same cannot be said to have taken away the right to protection of law. .....Anisur Rahman @ KM Ziaul Haque vs Government of Bangladesh, 12 BLC 22. |

The contemplation of the aforesaid provision of law is clear and unambiguous that the Court cannot waive such interest and it is the Bank itself who could waive such interest to whom the defendant could approach for waiving the interest. Section 30 of the Bank Companies Act, 1991 has also imposed similar embargo upon the Court's jurisdiction to interfere with the interest so payable by the borrower to the Bank under agreement, although the Court had authority to grant installment to the decretal amount subject to some limitations. .....Janata Bank vs Mohiuddin Textile 62 DLR 501. |

How the Bank can execute the deed of redemption in favour of the mortgagor when the auction sale has not yet been set-aside. Execution of deed of redemption on 29-3-2015 is absolutely a nullity and void ab initio. Because long before the execution of deed of redemption, the property was sold to the auction-purchasers making the sale absolute and there was no interference at that moment by the higher Court. After auction sale of mortgaged property, leaving the auction purchaser the Bank cannot make any compromise under section 45 of the Act, 2003. .....Enayet Hossain vs Artha Rin Adalat (Spl Original) 29 BLC 74. |

It appears that the provision of Section 46 of the Ain, 2003 so far it relates to the question of filing the suit by the bank or financial institution against the borrower within specified time is directory and not at all mandatory and therefore, in any view of the matter, the suit is not barred by limitation. Thus, there is no illegality or impropriety in the impugned order of the learned Judge of Artha Rin Adalat No. 1 Dhaka. Hence, the rule fails. .....Shahabuddin Khan vs Bangladesh, 14 BLC 111. |

A company incorporated under the companies Act is a juristic person. A share holder is not the owner of the company or its assets. The company itself owns its property.

It is no doubt, the liability of a share-holder, whether he is the Chairman of the Board of Directors, or a director, is only to the extent of the face value of the shares he holds, nothing more than that. But a share-holder of a company is not a necessary party in the Artha Rin Suit. …..Mahbub Ali, Son of late Maharam Ali, of Gusra,Post Office-Noapara, Police Station-Raouzan, District- Chittagong.-Vs.-The Judge, Artha Rin Adalat-1, Chittagong and others. 4 ALR 2014(2) 333 |

Since the parties failed to settle the dispute among them amicably, and it was not the case of the petitioner that the Mediator did not seat with the parties for several days to settle the matter through mediation, non obtaining signatures of the parties is a mere irregularity and not illegality. …..Mohammad Ali Proprietor of M/S.

Section 57 of the Ain confirms the inherent power of the court. Section 57 of the Ain is not any enabling provision for setting-aside of sale. Section 57 of the Ain reiterates the provision of section 151 of CPC, which just confirms the inherent power of court. Inherent power of the court cannot be exercised when there is specific provision in CPC and other law. .....Shamsuddin Ahmed vs City Bank Ltd, 18 BLC 30. |

Section 57 |
Section 57 of the Act, 2003, in addition, authorizes the Adalat to pass any supplementary order to secure ends of justice, on consideration of the facts and circumstances under the proceedings. Therefore, we are of the view that section 57 is the appropriate provision incorporated in the statute (Act, 2003) authorizing the Adalat to pass the necessary order in order to ensure realization of the decretal dues. As such, in the public interest to ensure realization of public money, the Artha Rin Adalat exercised the statutory authority under section 57 of the Act, 2003 and by the impugned order directed the petitioner to deposit his passport. Hence, Article 36 of the Constitution has not been violated in passing the impugned order by the Adalat. .....Ali Imam Vs. The Judge, Artha Rin Adalat & ors, (Spl.

The mediator took initiative to settle the dispute amicably between the parties and to that effect he sat with the parties concerned for several days but failed to settle the dispute and in that view of the matter the mediator submitted his report before the Adalat without taking signatures or thumb impressions of the parties thereon. Since the parties failed to settle the dispute among them amicably, and it was not the case of the petitioner that the mediator did not seat with the parties for several days to settle the matter through mediation, non obtaining signatures of the parties is a mere irregularity and not illegality. .....Mohammad Ali vs Judge, Artha Rin Adalat, Chittagong (Spl Original) 24 BLC 89 |

The right of redemption—The right of redemption of mortgage has never stood extinguished at any material time. Accordingly, it was always open to the petitioner in particular in the facts and circumstances to seek redemption of her mortgage upon a settlement arrived at with the bank of financial institution concerned. Once the loan repayment is forthcoming, the Adalat will correspondingly find it within its power to permit such repayment and recovery of loan, thereby, doing that which is right and just as contemplated in section 57. .....Rokaiya Amin vs Bangladesh, represented by the Secretary, Finance Division, Ministry of Finance, 67 DLR 545. |

Section 60(1)(3) |
Preamble—Intention of the Legislature clear —On a plain reading of the preamble of the statute, it transpires that the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 (Act VIII of 2003) was promulgated with a view to further consolidate and amend the existing law i.e. Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 1990 for speedy recovery of loan of the financial institution. Whereas, by virtue of section 60(1) of the Ain, 2003 the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 1990 has altogether been repealed and in explicit terms the legislature manifested its clear intention in section 60(3) that so far pending cases are concerned the provision enunciated under Ain, 2003, are to be made applicable. In other words, the Ain, 2003 did not conceive any saving clause in order to make the earlier repealed Ain applicable for the pending cases to be disposed of under the Ain, 1990. .....Udayan Garments (Pvt) Ltd vs Bangladesh 59 DLR 615. |

Section 60(3) |
Preamble—Remedial Legislation—The above language of the preamble of two
separate enactments are more or less identical in order to address the
problem of recovery of loans disbursed in favour of the loanee. In fact,
Act VIII of 2003 is a remedial legislation which has been promulgated in an
integrated manner with an intention to recover the loan from the defaulter
loanee by repealing the previous Act IV of 1990. Normally it is the
procedure which is in force, at the time of the trial or the disposal of
the suit must be applied. Section 60(1) of the Ain provides
‘‘অর্থ ঋণ আদালত (১৯৯০ সালের
৪নং আইন) আইন এতদ্বারা রহিত
করা হইল।’’ In the same breath, by virtue of section 60(3)
all the provisions as enacted under the new Ain have been made applicable
to the pending proceedings initiated under the Ain, 1990.

The execution cases filed under the Ain, 1990 comes within the meaning of "বিচারাধীন মামলা" as contemplated in section 60(3) of the Ain, 2003. Section 60(3) of the Ain, 2003 manifests the view that the Artha Rin Adalat established under section 4 of the Ain, 2003 has entirely inherited upon repealing the Ain, 1990 in which all the cases relating to recovery of loan including execution cases pending in those Adalats under the Ain, 1990 stood transferred by operation of law to the Artha Rin Adalat constituted under the new Ain namely, the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 providing statutory power to dispose of all the pending cases in accordance with the provisions of the Ain, 2003, as far as possible. .....Mofiz Mia vs Artha Rin Adalat, 60 DLR 417. |

In conclusion, we hold that the execution case filed under the Ain, 1990 comes within the meaning of "বিচারাধীন মামলা" as contemplated in section 60(3) of the Ain, 2003. As already mentioned section 60(3) of the Ain, 2003 manifests the view that the Artha Rin Adalat established under section 4 of the Ain, 2003 has entirely inherited upon repealing the Ain, 1990 in which all the cases relating to recovery of loan including execution cases pending in those Adalats under the Ain, 1990 stood transferred by operation of law to the Artha Rin Adalat constituted under the new Ain, namely the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 providing statutory power to dispose of all the pending cases in accordance with the provisions of the Ain, 2003, as far as possible. .....Kazi Masudur Rahman vs Artha Rin Adalat, 60 DLR 679. |

Under the provision of sub-section (3) of section 60 of the Ain the said proceedings shall be taken to be a proceeding under the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003. Therefore, the question raised can be decided at the trial of the suit and at the time of receiving evidence from the parties. Besides, the impugned order was not amenable to the writ jurisdiction as the order was passed under the repealed Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 1990. .....Zahidi Millah vs Artha Rin Adalat, Khulna, 11 BLC 238. |

Section 60(3) |
It appears that the Execution Cases were filed by the decree holder bank to execute the decree before the Adalat constituted under the Ain, 1990 and thereafter, the Artha Rin Adalat Ain, 2003 having come into force on 1-5-2003 upon repealing the Ain of 1990 in which the said execution cases automatically transferred to the Artha Rin Adalat established under the Ain, 2003 under the provision of section 60(3) of the said Ain. It also appears that the Adalat rejected the applications for dismissing the execution cases on the ground that since there is no indication in the Ain, 2003 for disposal of the execution cases filed under the Ain, 1990 the Code of Civil Procedure shall be applicable relating to those execution cases. On an analysis of the impugned orders vis-a-vis the law, it appears that there is no flaw in the reasoning of the Adalat or any ground to assail the impugned orders which are based on proper appreciation of fact and law. .....Mofiz Mia vs Artha Rin Adalat, 13 BLC 444. |
