The bench of Justice FRM Nazmul Ahasan and Justice KM Kamrul Kader directed the Green Line authorities to make the payment within three months. Earlier, the Green Line authorities had paid a total of Tk 1.3 million to Russell in three phases. With the latest High Court ruling, the total amount is set to climb to Tk 3.3 million. In an immediate reaction to the court order, Russell told reporters that he would use the money to ensure the well-being of his children. Now, even if I use the Tk 2 million to get a new prosthetic leg, I won't get my old life back," he said.
