Prof Arefin mourns death of Attorney General Mahbubey Alam

DHAKA, Sept 27, 2020 (BSS) – Dhaka University (DU) former Vice-Chancellor Prof AAMS Arefin Siddique today expressed profound shock and sorrow at the death of Attorney General Mahbubey Alam.

In a condolence message, he said Mahbubey Alam’s death has created a vacuum not only in the arena of law but also in different sector of society and this vacuum will never be filled up.

Prof Arefin, also chairman of board of directors of Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha (BSS), said the attorney general was a perfect gentleman and affable personality.

He said when the country was under the grip of undemocratic military rulers, Mahbubey Alam played an important role to establish a democratic country by leading the professionals.

“When I was serving as the vice-chancellor of the Dhaka University, he was a syndicate member of the university. Despite holding the busy post like attorney general, he gave time for the university in its different needs and provided legal assistances,” the former VC recalled.

He said the nation will always recall the contribution of Mahbubey Alam to the country’s arena of law.

Prof Arefin prayed for eternal peace of the departed soul and expressed deep sympathy to the bereaved family.

The state’s chief legal officer breathed his last at the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) around 7:25 this evening.
