Execution of Bangabandhu murder case verdict within this year

Sunday, 2 August 2009


GOPALGANJ, Aug 1 (UNB): Attorney General Mahbubey Alam Saturday said the government had decided to execute the verdict on the Bangabandhu assassination case within this year.
"All the processes in this regard have already been completed. We hope the execution of the verdict on the Father of the Nation murder case will be possible within the current year," the chief government law officer told newsmen after paying homage at Bangabandhu Mausoleum at Tungipara in the afternoon.
Replying to a question on graft cases, Mahbubey Alam said it was a matter to be decided by the court whether the corruption cases filed during the past military-backed caretaker government against politicians, including the ex-PM and BNP chairperson Khaldea Zia, would be withdrawn.
Mahbubey Alam accompanied by his 80 deputies placed wreaths at the Bangabandhu Mausoleum. They offered Fateha there and prayed for salvation of the departed soul.
Besides, newly appointed Shipping Minister Shahjahan Khan and five other state ministers also paid tributes at the mausoleum of the Father of the Nation.
