http://bdnews24.com/bangladesh/2016...her-information-on-195-pakistan-army-soldiers
A committee has been formed to gather information on the 195 Pakistan Army men who allegedly committed crimes against humanity during the Liberation War in 1971, Law Minister Anisul Huq has said.
Huq told Parliament on Wednesday that the constitution of the committee was the 'first' step.
He said the number of Pakistani army officials who had perpetrated war crimes was 195 or more.
"Gathering information on them through the committee is under way. The next step will be decided after analysing the information collected," the minister added.
Under a tripartite deal with Bangladesh and India after the war, Pakistan took back its 195 army personnel, detained in Bangladesh on war crimes charges, on condition that it will try them.
Forty-four years have passed but the country has not tried them.
The issue reemerged when citizens in Bangladesh renewed the demand to try them in response to Pakistan's criticism of the war crimes trial and the execution of war criminals in Bangladesh.
