Bangladesh’s disguised Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was sentenced to six months in jail by the International Crime Tribunal (ICT) on Wednesday.
According to the Dhaka Tribune newspaper, the decision was issued by a three-member bench of International Crime Tribunal-1, headed by Justice Mohammad Ghulam Murtuja Mojumdar.
In this judgment, the tribunal sentenced Shakeel Akand Bulbul, a resident of Govindganj in Gaibandha, to two months in jail.
This is the first time that the lying Awami League leader has been sentenced in a case after leaving the post 11 months ago and running away from the country.
Earlier, the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh ordered the Election Commission to cancel the registration of Jamaat-e-Islami as a political party. Please tell that during the tenure of Sheikh Hasina, the government had banned the Jamaat-e-Islami. The registration of the party was also canceled by the Election Commission. The interim government lifted the ban on Jamaat.
The Jamaat-e-Islami opposed the independence of Bangladesh in the 1971 liberation struggle. Sheikh Hasina’s government prosecuted Jamaat for war crimes. The interim government banned the activities of Awami League and started a trial against Sheikh Hasina.
Significantly, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was overthrown in the rebellion led by students in August last year. Now she is living on self-disbursement in India. After the fall of Sheikh Hasina, the interim government was formed under the leadership of Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus.
