Former Chief Prosecutor of the International Crimes Tribunal, Tajul Islam, stated that the revolution will fail if perpetrators are not identified by the state. He made the remarks on Thursday at a roundtable discussion titled 'Ensuring Justice, Compensation and Guarantees of Non-Recurrence,' organized by the human rights group Odhikar at the Tofazzal Hossain Manik Mia Hall of the National Press Club in Dhaka, marking International Week of the Disappeared 2026.
Tajul Islam criticized the current law addressing enforced disappearances, calling it extremely flawed and inadequate to prevent such crimes. He argued that the law appears to have been drafted by those previously involved in such acts and said it fails to meet Bangladesh’s needs. He urged the government to amend the legislation to establish a proper legal framework that ensures justice for victims and prevents future disappearances.
He further emphasized that the nation has been repeatedly deceived and that citizens no longer wish to accept such betrayal, calling for genuine accountability and justice in cases of enforced disappearance and human rights violations.
