Brigadier General Abdullahil Aman Azmi testified before International Crimes Tribunal-1 as the third witness in a case concerning alleged abduction and torture inside the Joint Interrogation Cell, known as Ayna Ghar. In his second day of testimony on Monday, he described being taken from his Moghbazar residence on 22 August 2016 and held for years in DGFI custody. He said interrogators repeatedly questioned him about his writings critical of India and his supposed links to Jamaat-e-Islami, which he denied.
Azmi stated that during questioning, he was asked why he wrote against India and told his interrogators that if such writing was a punishable offense, he should be charged in court rather than detained illegally. He said his 30-year military career had taught him that India was the main adversary, and if that was a crime, all who taught it were equally guilty. He also described poor detention conditions, including bedbug-infested bedding and denial of basic necessities.
The tribunal scheduled cross-examination by defense lawyers for Thursday following the completion of Azmi’s testimony.
