Where in any suit it is proved by affidavit or otherwise-
(a) that any property in dispute in a suit is in danger of being wasted, damaged or alienated by any party to the suit, or wrongfully sold in execution of a decree, or
(b) that the defendant threatens, or intends, to remove or dispose of his property with a view to defraud his creditors,
the Court may by order grant a temporary injunction to restrain such act, or make such other order for the purpose of staying and preventing the wasting, damaging, alienation, sale, removal or disposition of the property as the Court thinks fit, until the disposal of the suit or until further orders.
(1) In any suit for restraining the defendant from committing a breach of contract or other injury of any kind, whether compensation is claimed in the suit or not, the plaintiff may, at any time after the commencement of the suit, and either before or after judgment, apply to the Court for a temporary injunction to restrain the defendant from committing the breach of contract or injury complained of, or any breach of contract or injury of a like kind arising out of the same contract or relating to the same property or right.
(2) The Court may by order grant such injunction, on such terms, as to the duration of the injunction, keeping an account, giving security or otherwise, as the Court thinks fit.
(3) In case of disobedience, or of breach of any such terms, the Court granting an injunction may order the property of the person guilty of such disobedience or breach to be attached, and may also order such person to be detained in the civil prison for a term not exceeding six months, unless in the meantime the Court directs his release.
(4) No attachment under this rule shall remain in force for more than one year, at the end of which time, if the disobedience or breach continues, the property attached may be sold, and out of the proceeds the Court may award such compensation as it thinks fit, and shall pay the balance, if any, to the party entitled thereto.
The Court shall in all cases, before granting an injunction, direct notice of the application for the same to be given to the opposite party 1[and be satisfied that notice has been duly served, or could not be served on account of refusal by the opposite party to receive, or otherwise]:
Provided that, except in the case of sale of goods for default in payment, at the stipulated time, of a debt in respect of which the goods were pledged with any bank, the Court may, where it appears that the object of granting injunction would be defeated by the delay, dispense with such notice.
Any notice directed to be served under rule 3 shall be returned, with or without service, to the Court within seven days of issuance; and if the notice is returned without service, the Court shall cause the notice to be served again within seven days thereof in accordance with the provision of rule 20 of Order V, so far as may be applicable, and such service shall be deemed as due service of the notice.]
Any order for an injunction may be discharged, or varied, or set aside by the Court, on application made thereto by any party dissatisfied with such order.
An injunction directed to a corporation is binding not only on the corporation itself, but also on all members and officers of the corporation whose personal action it seeks to restrain.
(1) Court shall not, without serving reasonable notice to the Government Pleader and giving him or any Pleader authorised by him in that behalf an opportunity of being heard, pass ex parte any order of ad interim or temporary injunction under any of the aforesaid rules of this Order at the instance of a private party against the Government or any statutory public authority, if such order is likely to prejudice or interfere withAny measure designed to implement any development programme, or any development work or otherwise harm public interest.
(2) The Court shall, in all cases where a private party makes an application for ad interim or temporary injunction against another private party, direct notice of the application to the opposite party, unless it appears that the object or granting the injunction would be defeated by the delay.
(3) If any order of ad interim or temporary injunction is passed ex-parte at the instance of a private party against another private party, the Court shall hear and dispose of the matter on merit within seven days of appearance of the opposite party, unless the period is extended further at the instance of the opposite party; and any such order of ad interim or temporary injunction shall stand vacated, if the party at whose instance it was passed, prays for adjournment, or on being called upon by the Court, fails to attend hearing.
(4) If the suit is ultimately decided against the party at whose instance an ad interim or temporary injunction is granted, and it appears that on account of such injunction the other party has suffered loss, the Court, while deciding the suit shall award such compensatory cost not exceeding ten thousand taka in favour of that other party, in addition to other cost as he may be entitle to.
(5) The cost awarded under sub-rule (4) shall not disentitle the party, if he is otherwise entitled to, to claim further compensation, on account of any loss which he may have suffered due to grant of temporary injunction; but such cost received under sub-rule (4) shall be taken into account if such further compensation is claimed.]
The Court may, on the application of any party to a suit, order the sale, by any person named in such order, and in such manner and on such terms as it thinks fit, of any moveable property, being the subject-matter of such suit, or attached before judgment in such suit, which is subject to speedy and natural decay, or which for any other just and sufficient cause it may be desirable to have sold at once.

(b) for all or any of the purposes aforesaid authorise any person to enter upon or into any land or building in the possession of any other party to such suit; and
(c) for all or any of the purposes aforesaid authorise any samples to be taken, or any observation to be made or experiment to be tried, which may seem necessary or expedient for the purpose of obtaining full information or evidence.
(2) The provisions as to execution of process shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to persons authorised to enter under this rule.
(1) An application by the plaintiff for an order under rule 6 or rule 7 may be made after notice to the defendant at any time after institution of the suit.

Where land paying revenue to Government, or a tenure liable to sale, is the subject-matter of a suit, if the party in possession of such land or tenure neglects to pay the Government revenue, or the rent due to the proprietor of the tenure, as the case may be, and such land or tenure is consequently ordered to be sold, any other party to the suit claiming to have an interest in such land or tenure may, upon payment of the revenue or rent due previously to the sale (and with or without security at the discretion of the Court), be put in immediate possession of the land or tenure;
and the Court in its decree may award against the defaulter the amount so paid, with interest thereon at such rate as the Court thinks fit, or may charge the amount so paid, with interest thereon at such rate as the Court orders, in any adjustment of accounts which may be directed in the decree passed in the suit.
Where the subject-matter of a suit is money or some other thing capable of delivery, and any party thereto admits that he holds such money or other thing as a trustee for another party, or that it belongs or is due to another party, the Court may order the same to be deposited in Court or delivered to such last-named party, with or without security, subject to the further direction of the Court.
