A formal complaint has been submitted against Hasanul Haq Inu, president of Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal (JSD), in connection with the killing of seven individuals during the July Uprising in Kushtia, reports bdnews24.com.
The 39-page complaint was presented to International Crimes Tribunal (ICT)-2, led by Justice Nazrul Islam Chowdhury, on Thursday.
The court set September 29 for the charge framing hearing, with an order to present Inu in court on that day.
Inu was arrested by police in Uttara in the capital on Aug 26 last year. He was subsequently interrogated in connection with multiple cases.
Prosecutor Md Mizanul Islam said, "In Sheikh Hasina's words, Hasanul Haq Inu was her fellow warrior; we submitted a total of eight formal charges against him. The tribunal-2 has accepted eight complaints against Inu, considering our formal charges and related documents.
"The production warrant is set on September 29, as he has already been arrested in a different case. The court issued an order to produce him to the tribunal."
He also said Inu was one of the partners of the 14-Party Alliance and the supreme of JaSod. He was in regular contact with Hasina, advising her on different issues while providing instructions to local police superintendents and his party cadres.
He added that Hasina used to direct the government's law-enforcing agencies and different armed cadres, including the Awami League, its affiliates, the Bangladesh Chhatra League, Jubo League, and others, to commit different types of criminal activities.
