On 16 July 2009 he was appointed judge of the appellate division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh.[5] He assumed the office of the chairman of the Bangladesh Judicial Service Commission in June 2011 and the office of the Chief Justice of Bangladesh on 17 January 2015. Sinha attended several conferences regarding judicial affairs.[6] Sinha is known for a number of high-profile judgments including those on the killing of former President Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and the 5th and 13th amendments to the Constitution of Bangladesh.[4] The 16th amendment verdictThe 16th amendment of the constitution of Bangladesh was passed by the parliament on 17 September 2014 which would give power to Jatiya Sangsad to remove judges if allegations of incapability or misconduct against them are proved.[7] On 5 May 2016, a special High Court bench declared the amendment illegal and unconstitutional.[8][9] On 4 January 2017, the government challenged the verdict by filing an appeal with the appellate division and on 3 July, a seven-member Supreme Court bench headed by Sinha unanimously rejected the appeal upholding the High Court verdict.[8][10] Following the full verdict release on 1 August, the prime minister and senior ministers publicly criticized Sinha for the decision.[16] The Jatiya Sangsad on September 13 passed a resolution calling for legal steps to nullify the Supreme Court verdict.[16]FalloutSinha went on one month's leave since 3 October 2017[11] and traveled to Australia on 13 October.[19] Justice Md Abdul Wahhab Miah was appointed to discharge the duties of the chief justice in the absence of Sinha.[12] Earlier, law minister Anisul Huq said Sinha went on the leave for treatment as he was suffering from cancer.[13] Sinha later rejected this claim.[12] Bangladesh National Party spokesperson alleged Sinha was forced to leave.[14] On 14 October, a day after Sinha left the country, the Supreme Court released a statement[15] citing 11 charges against him including money laundering, financial irregularities, corruption and moral turpitude.[25] According to the statement, on 30 September, President Abdul Hamid handed over documentary evidence over those allegations to four other appellate division justices.[16] It added, upon meeting with those justices, Sinha submitted his application to the president on 2 October for one month's leave.[16] On 10 November, Sinha flew to Canada when his 39-day leave expired. A day later, he sent his resignation letter to President Hamid.[17] Sinha was scheduled to retire on 31 January 2018.[29] Personal lifeSinha is married to Sushama Sinha.[18] BiographySinha published his autobiography A Broken Dream: Rule of Law, Human Rights and Democracy on 19 September 2018. In the book, he gave first-hand accounts of government agencies intimidating the judges to serve verdicts in favour of the government, ruled by Awami League. In a sensational revelation, he alleged that the country's military intelligence agency Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI), forced him to leave the country and offer the resignation.[19] DGFI spokesperson Brigadier General Tanveer Mazhar Siddique, later denied the allegation saying, DGFI never threatens any person or does anything like this.[20] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.supremecourt.gov.bd/web/?page=chief_justice.php&menu=11|title=Hon'ble Chief Justice of Bangladesh |publisher=Supreme Court of Bangladesh |accessdate=13 October 2017}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Sinha, Surendra Kumar}}2. ^{{cite news |title=Surendra Kumar Sinha takes oath as the 21st Chief Justice of Bangladesh |url=http://www.firstpost.com/india/bangladesh-chief-justice-surendra-kumar-sinha-forced-to-go-on-leave-amid-differences-with-government-4142869.html |newspaper=firstpost.com |accessdate=14 October 2017}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.thedailystar.net/politics/chief-justice-cj-surendra-kumar-sinha-resigns-1489639|title=Chief justice resigns|date=2017-11-11|work=The Daily Star|access-date=2017-11-11|language=en}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite news |title=Surendra Kumar Sinha appointed next chief justice of Bangladesh|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/south-asia/Surendra-Kumar-Sinha-appointed-next-chief-justice-of-Bangladesh/articleshow/45855562.cms |newspaper=The Times of India |publisher=Bennett, Coleman & Co.
