International Crimes Tribunal chief prosecutor Md Tajul Islam on Sunday said that the tribunal would be reconstituted soon.
‘The reconstitution may take place in next one week. I had a meeting with the law adviser in this regard last week,’ he said.
‘The prosecution is not being able to get many necessary orders from the tribunal unless it is reconstituted. The adviser has assured me. The trial process will start formally after the reconstitution of the tribunal,’ he added.
The chief prosecutor further said that letters were being sent to all the media houses, private and public hospitals, civil surgeon offices, deputy commissioners and superintendents of police, seeking information and evidences of genocides those had allegedly been taken following the order of the past Awami League government in July and August.
Urging all to come forward with information in this regard, he said that the ICT teams were also visiting hospitals to collect evidences of genocides and crimes against humanity.
The tribunal at this moment has no judges, as former chairman Abu Ahmed Jamadar went into retirement on July 13, while another judge was taken back to the High Court.
