Speedy trial courts for trial of recent terrorism
Saturday, 25 January 2014
Speedy trial courts will be set up in the country’s all divisional headquarters to bring to justice those committing terrorism amid judgment on war crimes and over January 5 parliamentary polls followed by attacks on minority communities.
Talking to UNB, Law Secretary Sheikh ASM Zahirul Haq said the formation of the special tribunals is underway though it may take time to form the courts for lack of logistic support.
The home ministry has sent a letter to the law ministry seeking necessary steps for constituting special courts to hold the trial of the recent atrocities over the judgment on war crimes and 10th parliamentary polls.
