The prosecution of the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) has received the probe report in a case filed over crimes against humanity committed during the July Mass Uprising against Sajeeb Wazed Joy and three others. “We have received the probe report over July Mass Uprising crimes against humanity against Sajeeb Wazed Joy, Zunaid Ahmed Palak, Salman F Rahman and Anisul Huq,” prosecutor Gazi MH Tamim told newsmen.
Although the prosecutor declined to provide details, various media outlets have reported that Joy, former ICT affairs adviser to ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, and Palak have been accused of shutting down internet services nationwide during the uprising, thereby abetting the commission of crimes against humanity.
Anisul Huq and Salman F Rahman, meanwhile, have reportedly been accused of inciting mass killings and other crimes against humanity by imposing curfew at the time.
