1971 war crimes: Bangladesh set to hang JI leader

The same way a guy's jail verdict was changed to hanging.....we do not have any laws here...tomorrow they might overrule the whole verdict and change execution to imprisonment....

Enh..if he is going to swing at 52 mins past 12 then its going to be a bit redundant to change the verdict later in the day (during the working hours tomorrow) or do you foresee the execution being cancelled as we approach the new designated time?

He is not going to be hanged at 52 min.....it has been halted until further notice....and the notice came after working hours....His wife visited him in jail(was supposed to be the last visit)....when she came out she held up the victory sign....and everybody knew something was wrong!

WTF :rofl: :rofl:
 
I am sadly, ignorant what he did but war crimes are hard to prove, I wonder how they got enough proof to get a conviction....

The trial was not much transparent with it's credibility being questioned, however, the person being executed is a known culprit and is highly notorious for his activities in 1971.

You are talking with preconceived notion of guilt made with known political motivation. But not a single proof could be presented by Awami League govt to implicate him.
 
A shambles court, these are alleged crimes, nothing has been proved. A kangaroo court with intentions to eradicate the Ulema of Bangladesh which then weakens Islam...Sayeedi saab, why is he in the nick? No evidence, no rationale argument. International lawyers such as Tony Cadman (who I know briefly) and other international lawyers have already laughed at how much of a shambles this court is and laugh at AL, a party which has violated so many UN and human right laws, corrupt to the core, vindictive to the core, yet some of these Indians intentionally comment on how much of an angelic party it is.

To the half witted commenters (indians), keep to your own hinduvta jai shree hocus-pocus and don't comment on affairs that mean nothing to you..
 
UN rights chief makes last-minute appeal to halt execution of Bangladeshi politician

10 December 2013 – United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay today called for an eleventh-hour stay of execution for Abdul Quader Mollah, a Bangladeshi politician convicted of war crimes in a trial that did not meet international standards for imposition of the death penalty.
The Office of the High Commissioner (OHCHR) has written to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina of Bangladesh in a last-minute appeal to halt the execution, which was scheduled to take place later today, but has reportedly been postponed until at least Wednesday.

Mr. Mollah was condemned to life imprisonment by the Bangladesh International Crimes Tribunal, a special domestic court with the jurisdiction and competence to try and punish any person accused of committing atrocities, including genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, in Bangladesh, including during the country’s 1971 independence war.

After the Prosecution appealed the Tribunal’s decision to sentence him to life imprisonment, the country’s Supreme Court sentenced Mr. Mollah to death on 17 September – a ruling that cannot be appealed.

In a statement last month, the High Commissioner urged the Bangladeshi Government not to proceed with the death penalty in cases before the International Crimes Tribunal, particularly given concerns about the fairness of the trials. “The United Nations opposes the imposition of the death penalty under any circumstance, even for the most serious international crimes,” stated a news release from her office.

Two UN Special Rapporteurs, on the independence of judges and lawyers and on summary executions, have also called for the execution to be stayed, amid concerns that Mr. Mollah did not receive a fair trial.
