This interlocutory application has been filed by the applicant/claimants Nos. 1 and 2 praying for directing the Registry to disburse the 50% of the awarded amount, which was deposited by the Insurance Company in pursuant to the directions of this Court passed on 20.12.2024, in I.A.(C) No. 3993/2024 in connection with MAC Appeal No. 635/2024. 3. The prayer is not opposed to by learned counsel for the Insurance Company. She only submits that the applicant may be asked to submit bond while receiving the said amount. Page No.# 3/3 4. On the other hand, Mr. R. Islam, learned counsel for opposite party Nos. 2 and 3 submits that opposite party Nos. 2 and 3 are also claimant Nos. 4 and 5 and though they have not filed a separate interlocutory application, they may also be allowed to take their share of the deposited amount if such deposit is allowed. He submits that the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal in the impugned judgment has not clarified regarding the shares of the claimants, hence, they are entitled to the equal share. 5. After considering the submissions of learned counsel for both sides, this Court allows this interlocutory application and directs the Registry to disburse the amount deposited by the Insurance Company (Rs.36,14,612/-) in equal proportions to the present applicants, namely, Amina Begum and Abdus Samad Mollah as well as to Mr. Al-Zubair Mollah and Joyna Khatun (claimant Nos. 4 and 5/opposite party Nos. 2 and 3) after furnishing a bond of the value equal to the amount disbursed to the said claimants. 6. The Registry shall disburse the amount as directed after proper verification. 7. This interlocutory application is accordingly disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
