Saimum Reza Talukder, a prosecutor of the International Crimes Tribunal, has resigned citing personal reasons. His resignation marks the first departure of a prosecutor since the removal of former Chief Prosecutor Muhammad Tajul Islam. The development was confirmed on March 9, 2026.

On the same day, two new prosecutors were appointed to the tribunal. According to a notification from the Ministry of Law, Majina Raihan (Madina) and Mohammad Zahirul Amin have been named as the new prosecutors. The appointments aim to fill the vacancy created by Talukder’s resignation and strengthen the tribunal’s prosecutorial team.

The tribunal continues its work on ongoing cases, and the new appointments are expected to maintain continuity in its judicial proceedings.
