Today the Tribunal heard matters in the following cases:
- Chief Prosecutor vs. Ashrafuzzaman Khan & Chowdhury Mueen Uddin
- Chief Prosecutor vs. Abdul Alim
In the case against Ashrafuzzaman Khan and Chowdhury Mueen Uddin Tribunal 2 recorded the testimony of Prosecution witness 13, Professor Panna Kaesar, alias Saifun Nahar Chowdhury. Both the examination-in-chief and cross-examination were completed. The witness’ testimony supports Charge 9, pertaining to the killing of journalist Shahidullah Kaesar.
In the case against Abdul Alim, the Tribunal rejected a time petition moved by senior defense counsel Mr Ahsanul Haque Hena. However, the case was subsequently adjourned for the day since Ashrafuzzaman and Mueen Uddin’s case took longer than anticipated.
