The International Crimes Tribunal has fixed Thursday for passing the indictment order against former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, former home minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal and former Inspector General of Police Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun, in a case related to alleged crimes against humanity during the July uprising.

Chief Prosecutor Mohammad Tajul Islam, along with Prosecutors Gazi MH Tamim and BM Sultan Mahmud, appeared on behalf of the prosecution, while state-appointed counsel Amir Hossain represented the accused.

Earlier, on June 17, the tribunal issued a notice ordering Sheikh Hasina and Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal to surrender in connection with the genocide and crimes against humanity that allegedly took place during July–August.
