Investigation launched against Awami League
The investigation agency of the International Crimes Tribunal has formally launched a probe into the Awami League as a political party. An investigating officer has already been appointed.
Chief Prosecutor Mohammad Tajul Islam confirmed the matter to the media on Tuesday, October 7.
Earlier, on October 5, the Chief Prosecutor had hinted at a formal probe during a press briefing.
He said a political party named the National Democratic Movement (NDM) filed a complaint on October 2 last year against the Awami League over crimes against humanity. Based on that, the investigation has begun. He added that the initial stage aims to determine whether the party can face trial as a criminal organisation.
Prosecution sources later confirmed that the formal probe has now started.
