Bangladesh's tribunal indicts Hasina over killing of protesters

By AK Rai 11 Jul 2025 Comment Edit

PTI, Dhaka, JULY 10, 2025 : A special tribunal in Bangladesh on Thursday indicted deposed premier Sheikh Hasina in absentia on charges of crimes against humanity in connection with a deadly crackdown on protesters during the July-August uprising last year.

The International Crimes Tribunal of Bangladesh (ICT-BD) has set August 3 as the date for the trial. The tribunal has "framed the charge against her (Hasina) alongside the Home Minister of her regime Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal and (the then) Inspector General of Police Chowdhury Abdullah Al Mamun," a prosecution lawyer told reporters.

The ICT bench, headed by Justice Md Golam Mortuza Mozumder, passed the order after rejecting a defence plea to dismiss the charges. The other two members of the tribunal are Justices Md Shofiul Alam Mahmood and Md Mohitul Haq Enam Chowdhury.
