The International Crimes Tribunal on Sunday ordered the publication of a newspaper notice to summon former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and five other accused in a case over the alleged killing of nine youths in Dhaka’s Kalyanpur area. The case accuses the defendants of crimes against humanity for allegedly staging a ‘militant drama’ before the killings. The other accused are former Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, former Inspector General of Police A K M Shahidul Haque, former DMP Commissioner Asaduzzaman Mia, Special Branch chief Monirul Islam, and former DMP Mirpur Division Deputy Commissioner Md Jasim Uddin Molla.
According to the case details, on July 26, 2016, law enforcement agencies conducted an operation at a building known as “Jahajbari” in Kalyanpur, where nine suspected militants were killed, one was arrested, and another escaped. Authorities at the time claimed the deceased were members of the neo-JMB group. A case under the Anti-Terrorism Act was filed the following day and remains under trial.
After the fall of the Awami League government on August 5, 2024, alternative narratives about the incident emerged, leading to the filing of this new case on March 6 of the previous year.
