Solution

The correct option is D Syed Mahmud Hossain
Syed Mahmud Hossain has been sworn-in as the 22nd chief justice Chief Justice of Bangladesh. He succeeded acting chief justice Abdul Wahab Mian. Mian was appointed as the acting chief justice after the Bangladesh's first Hindu chief justice Surendra Kumar Sinha resigned in November 2017 amid graft allegations. Justice Sinha was at the centre stage of the dispute after the apex court delivered a verdict declaring void 16th constitutional amendment, scrapping Parliaments authority in impeaching Supreme Court judges.
