The International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) today ordered prison authorities to produce former Assistant Commissioner (AC) of Police Tanzil Ahmed and former constable Akram Hossain before the court on January 20 in two separate cases of crimes against humanity.
The three-judge panel of the ICT led by Justice Md Golam Mortuza Mozumder passed the orders this morning, allowing two separate petitions of the prosecution.
“The tribunal held a hearing on the prosecution pleas to issue production warrants against the two accused to show them arrested in crimes against humanity cases.
Allowing our pleas, the tribunal ordered to produce the duo on January 20,” prosecutor BM Sultan Mahmud told newsmen.
The prosecutor alleged that former AC Tanzil was present on the scene when the then Officer-in-Charge (investigation) of Jatrabari Police Station Zakir Hossain shot and killed Imam Hasan Taim in the Jatrabari area on July 20.
He also said former constable Akram Hossain dragged Md Hridoy from inside a shop, where he was hiding, in the Konabari area of Gazipur district on August 5 and shot him from point-blank range, killing him on the spot.
