War crimes verdict on Rajshahi Razakar Tipu tomorrow
A three-member tribunal led by Justice Md Shahinur Islam today set the date for the verdict
The International Crimes Tribunal will pronounce its verdict tomorrow against Rajshahi's razakar Abdus Sattar alias Tipu Sultan over his alleged involvement in crimes against humanity during the Liberation War in 1971.
A three-member tribunal led by Justice Md Shahinur Islam today set the date for the verdict.
On October 17, the tribunal kept the verdict waiting after both the prosecution and defence counsels completed their arguments in the case.
Prosecutor Mukhlesur Rahman Badal, Sabina Yasmin Khan Munni and Tapos Kanti Bol represented the state while Ghazi MH Tamim stood for the accused.
Razakar Tipu, now in jail, was involved in the killing of at least 10 people, torturing two people and looting and arson at twelve to thirteen houses in areas under Boalia Police Station of Rajshahi.
In 2018, the tribunal framed two charges against him.
