The prosecution has officially begun an investigation against the Awami League as a political organization for alleged crimes against humanity committed during the July uprising. This marks the first time a major political party in Bangladesh faces possible trial under the International Crimes (Tribunal) Act. Chief Prosecutor Mohammad Tajul Islam confirmed that preliminary evidence collection is underway, based on allegations filed by the National Democratic Movement (NDM). The prosecution claims that party leaders, including Sheikh Hasina, issued directives leading to mass killings during the protests. A formal charge has already been filed against four senior party members, including joint general secretary Mahbubul Alam Hanif. The amended tribunal law now allows punishment for political parties and affiliated organizations involved in such crimes. The tribunal will decide soon whether to accept the charges for formal trial proceedings.
