Career[edit]

He resigned from his post reportedly over his failure to support pro-Bangladesh Nationalist Party lawyers in the Supreme Court Bar Association and Bangladesh Bar Council's cancellation of the license of a pro-BNP Bangladesh High Court judge who used fraudulent credentials.[3] He founded AF Hassan Ariff & Associates in the 1970s. From January 2008 to January 2009 he was Law Adviser to the Caretaker Government.[4]
