Verdicts in cases against Hasina, Awami brass likely to conclude in October: Government

DHAKA:

Bangladesh law adviser

Asif Nazrul on Tuesday said that verdicts in three to four cases - against top

Awami League

leaders, including former PM Sheikh Hasina, and some top police and administration officials - currently under trial at the

International Crimes Tribunal

(ICT) are expected to be delivered by October this year.
"We expect to get verdicts in three or four cases by October. It is a matter of

judicial process

, but I have this impression after talking to the investigation team, especially the tribunal's chief prosecutor

Tajul Islam

," he said.
Earlier on Monday, chief adviser Muhammad Yunus assured that trials for all killings and disappearances will be held. "The main thing about a trial is that it should be a fair trial... There should be no injustice. This struggle took place, and this sacrifice happened because we stood against injustice," he said.
