Trial of martyr Abu Sayeed murder case to begin soon: ICT prosecutor

City Desk :

International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) Prosecutor Barrister SM Moinul Karim has said the prosecution is working round the clock with an effort to begin the trial of Abu Sayeed murder case at the quickest possible time.

“Those will be accepted as defendants whose names come in the investigation into the Abu Sayeed murder case. It doesn’t matter whether ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina’s name comes up or not,” he said, reports BSS.

The ICT Prosecutor made this statement while talking to journalists today after visiting the spot where Abu Sayeed, a brilliant student of English Department of Begum Rokeya University, Rangpur (BRUR), was shot dead by police during the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement on July 16.

Barrister Karim is currently leading a 12-member ICT prosecution team to investigate Shaheed Abu Sayeed murder case and other cases filed in connections with murders, attacks and injuries during the July uprising in Rangpur.
