BSS, Dhaka :
Advocate Mizanul Islam, counsel for Jamaat Nayeb-e-Ameer Maulana Abdus Subhan, on Tuesday continued placing arguments at the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT)-2 for the second consecutive days.
The defence concluded their factual arguments on five charges out of the total nine so far. After the day’s proceedings, the tribunal adjourned the hearing till today leaving the defence arguments incomplete.
Earlier the prosecution placed their arguments for nine working days, starting from November 5.
A total of 31 prosecution witnesses testified against Subhan, narrating the heinous crimes committed by the Jamaat leader during the War of Liberation. But none vouched for Subhan, although the tribunal allowed the defence to produce three defence witnesses.
Subhan was indicted on December 31, 2013, on 9 counts of crimes against humanity by the ICT-1. On March 27, 2014, the ICT-1 transferred the case to ICT-2 acting on its own motion.
