According to the notice, “International Crime (Tribunal-1) rules of procedures 2010 (amended) are ordered in terms of section 31 of 2025 to surrender to the tribunal on June 24.

The court also issued an arrest order against Sheikh Hasina and Asdujman Khan Kamal, who took note of the allegations. Abdullah al-Mamoon was arrested on the same day. Sheikh Hasina’s Party Awami League strongly condemned these actions launched by the tribunal. The party described it as a ‘show hearing’ (false lawsuit) allegedly led by Mohammad Yunus under the guidance of ‘non-election and undemocratic’ government. The party questioned the fairness of the case and regarded all the allegations as unfounded as unfounded. Awami League says that many officials of the current administration have already publicly convicted Sheikh Hasina, making the fairness of the justice process suspect. -Ians DSC/ABM shares this story -tags
