War crimes investigation report soon
State Minister for Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Quamrul Islam yesterday said war crimes investigation report against former Jamaat-e-Islami ameer Ghulam Azam would be placed before the International Crimes Tribunal within one month.
There is no reason to think that the war crimes trial is being held excluding Ghulam Azam, he said while talking to journalists after a function at IFNC auditorium in the capital.
The function was organised by social service organisation Apex Bangladesh to give away wheelchairs to 20 physically challenged people.
The state minister said the trial of identified war criminals would be completed within the tenure of this government.
The government does not want to make any haste in this trial, he said, adding a hasty trial process has the possibility of committing mistakes.
The state minister said Islam is the religion of peace and urged all to remain alert against those who create anarchy in the name of Islam.
He lauded Apex Bangladesh for its initiative and called upon the well-off to come forward for this type of programme.
Apex Bangladesh President Chandan Das, among others, was present on the occasion.
