The prosecution of Bangladesh’s International Crimes Tribunal has formally filed charges against 99 accused in six cases related to killings during the July Revolution. According to the report, four cases involving 88 accused were submitted in January 2026, and two more cases with 11 accused followed in February. The tribunal accepted the charges and issued arrest warrants for fugitives. The accused include former ministers, senior police officials, and political leaders from various organizations.

In addition, the tribunal ordered the start of trials in four separate cases against 12 individuals, including Sajeeb Wazed Joy and Obaidul Quader. Trials have also begun in three other cases involving 32 defendants, including former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and 25 current and former army officers, over enforced disappearances and killings during the Awami League’s 15-year rule. Prosecutor Gazi M.H. Tamim said investigations had taken over a year due to the new investigative team’s inexperience but are now progressing smoothly.

The tribunal continues to process multiple cases stemming from the July Revolution, with verdicts pending in the Abu Sayeed and Ashulia murder cases.
