Bangladesh’s International Crimes Tribunal (ICT-BD) on Thursday announced it would deliver the verdict against deposed prime miner Sheikh Hasina on November 17 in a case over crimes against humanity. “The three-judge tribunal set Nov 17 for delivering the verdict,” a journal attending the tightly secured special court in the capital told PTI.

Hasina, her home miner in the ousted Awami League government, Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, and then inspector general of police (IGP) or police chief Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun were tried in the tribunal, where the ex-premier and Kamal were tried in absentia, with the court declaring them fugitives.

The then police chief faced the trial in person but emerged as an approver, admitting his own role and describing the role of the two co-accused in taming last year’s student-led street movement called July Uprising.

Mamun appeared on the dock as the ICT-BD chair Justice Mohammad Golam Mortuza Majumder fixed the date.
