Bangladesh’s International Crimes Tribunal issued arrest warrants against fugitive accused, including Sheikh Hasina, in a crimes-against-humanity case over killings surrounding a Hefazat-e-Islam rally at Shapla Chattar in Motijheel, Dhaka. The three-member Tribunal-2 panel, led by Chairman Justice Nazrul Islam Chowdhury, made the order on Monday.

Formal charges had previously been filed before the tribunal against Hasina and 40 others. The accused list includes former ministers, political figures, former police and military officials, journalists and others. The report said 10 of the 41 accused are currently in custody.

Those reported arrested include former minister Dipu Moni, former state minister for home affairs Shamsul Haque Tuku, Hasanul Haq Inu, retired Major General Ziaul Ahsan, former police inspector general A.K.M. Shahidul Haque, Shahriar Kabir, journalist Farzana Rupa and Mozammel Babu. Prosecutors said 58 people were killed in Dhaka and three other locations around the May 5, 2013 rally, with investigators identifying the victims.
