May 25, 2025
Bangladesh desk: The International Crimes Tribunal has directed to publish a notice in a national daily ordering to appear former prime minister Sheikh Hasina before it to explain the contempt of court case.
The notice must be published in a Bengali and an English dailies within the next seven days.
The Prosecution said, “The tribunal ordered to publish a notice asking Hasina and another one to appear before it for a statement, “Obtained a license to kill 227 people”.
The tribunal also asked Hasina to explain why charges of interfering with judicial proceedings should not be brought against her.
The International Crimes Tribunal’s investigation agency has brought an allegation against Sheikh Hasina for obstructing trial procedure through such statement.
The voice in a recently circulated audio clip on social media — claiming to have received a ‘licence to kill 227 people’ — has been confirmed to be that of former prime minister Sheikh Hasina through forensic analysis, according to the investigation agency.
