The International Crimes Tribunal-2 will hear the charge-framing against 30 accused on Mnoday, including police personnel, in the killing of Begum Rokeya University student Abu Sayed during the July Uprising.
The three-member bench of the ICT-2, led by its chairman Justice Nazrul Islam Chowdhury, is likely to frame the charges against the accused.
Six accused in the case—including former assistant sub-inspector Amir Hossain, former constable Sujan Chandra Roy, former proctor of Begum Rokeya University Shariful Islam, Rafiul, Anwar Pervez, and banned Chhatra League leader Imran Chowdhury Asheque—were produced before the court amid tight security.
On July 10, the tribunal directed the authorities concerned to publish a notice in newspapers, instructing 26 fugitive accused to appear before the tribunal in connection with the killing of Abu Sayed.
On June 30, the investigating agency of the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) found the involvement of 30 individuals, including police, in the killing of Abu Sayed.
Abu Sayed, a 12th batch student of the English Department at Begum Rokeya University, was killed during the anti-discrimination student movement on the afternoon of July 16—becoming the first student to die in police firing during the July movement.
