গণজাগরণ চত্বর থেকে: কফিন এসে গেছে। এখন শুধু লাশের অপেক্ষা। লাশ এলেই কফিনে পুরে পাঠিয়ে দেওয়া হবে পাকিস্তানে। ঘৃণিত সব রাজাকারের কবর হবে সেখানে, তাদের প্রিয় ভূমিতে।

যুদ্ধাপরাধী কাদের মোল্লার ফাঁসির দাবিতে শাহবাগে চলমান গণআন্দোলনের পঞ্চম দিনে একটি কফিন নিয়ে এসেছেন আন্দোলনকারীরা।

The goal of the demonstrators is to make it a-political (e.g. block Awami League from being involved) and to make protests nationwide from "Teknaf to Tetulia".

শীর্ষ নেতাদের মুক্তির দাবিতে রাজশাহীর চারঘাটে মিছিল বের করলে জামায়াত-শিবিরকর্মীকে গণপিটুনি দেয় স্থানীয় জনতা।


বুধবার বিকাল পাঁচটার দিকে চারঘাট বাজার চৌরাস্তার মোড়ে এ ঘটনা ঘটে।
এ ছাড়া প্রশাসনের অনুমতি ছাড়া মিছিল বের করায় জামায়াত-শিবিরের আট কর্মীকে আটক করেছে পুলিশ।

প্রত্যক্ষদর্শীরা জানান, বিকাল পাঁচটার দিকে চারঘাট বাজার চৌরাস্তার মোড়ে বিভিন্ন এলাকা থেকে আসা জামায়াত-শিবিরকর্মীরা সমাবেত হয়ে বিক্ষোভ মিছিল করার জন্য স্লোগান দিতে শুরু করে।

এ সময় স্থানীয় জনতা ক্ষিপ্ত হয়ে তাদের ধাওয়া দেয়।
এক পর্যায়ে বাজারের চারিদিক থেকে জনতা এসে তাদের ঘিরে ফেলে। এতে মিছিলকারী ছত্রভঙ্গ হয়ে বিভিন্ন দিক দিয়ে দৌড়ে পালিয়ে যায়।

পরে জামায়াত-শিবিরের ৮ নেতাকর্মীকে পিটুনি দিয়ে পুলিশে দেয় তারা।

চারঘাট উপজেলা নির্বাহী কর্মকর্তা মুন্সী মনিরুজ্জামান বলেন, তারা মিছিল সমাবেশ করার জন্য তার কাছ থেকে কোনো অনুমতি নেয়নি।

নাশকতার উদ্দেশ্যে জোর করে বিক্ষোভ সমাবেশ করার চেষ্টা করলে ক্ষুব্ধ জনতা তাদের ধরে পুলিশে দিয়েছে বলেও জানান তিনি।

চারঘাট থানার ওসি আব্দুর রাজ্জাক খান বলেন, যুদ্ধাপরাধী কাদের মোল্লার ফাঁসি না হওয়ায় মানুষের মধ্যে চরম ক্ষোভ বিরাজ করছে। এরই মধ্যে জামায়াত-শিবিরের স্লোগান শুনে ক্ষুব্ধ জনতা তাদের ধাওয়া করে এবং আট জনকে আটক করে গণধোলাই দেয়।

এ সময় পুলিশ তাদের জনতার হাত থেকে উদ্ধার করে থানায় নিয়ে যায় বলেও জানান তিনি।

ICT appeal law change likely soon

The government is preparing to make changes to the International Crimes Tribunal Act, and a proposal in this regard is likely to be placed during the current session of parliament.


The proposal could allow both prosecution and defence equal rights for appeal, said a senior government official preferring anonymity.

Under the current laws, the prosecution can appeal only if ICT acquits an accused of charges.

The ‘complexity’ arose after the prosecution found no way to appeal for a greater punishment to Jamaat-e-Islami Assistant Secretary General Abdul Quader Molla than the one already handed down by the ICT-2.

This constraint brought Section 21, Right of Appeal, of the International Crimes Tribunal Act in focus.

“If it cannot be placed in the current session (parliament), a special session will be convened,” said the official.

The decision comes amidst exploding protests across Bangladesh against the life-in-jail verdict for Quader Molla – widely known as the ‘Butcher of Mirpur’, as people say the punishment is ‘too little’.

Junior Law Minister Qamrul Islam confirmed on Saturday that the government was mulling changes to the specific section of the ICT Act.

“Decision will be taken after Law Minister Shafique Ahmed returns to Bangladesh,” he said.

Section 21 of the International Crimes Tribunal Act says: (i) A person convicted of any crime specified in Section 3 and sentenced by a Tribunal shall have the right of appeal to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh against such conviction and sentence.

(2) The Government shall have the right of appeal to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh against an order of acquittal.

(3) An appeal under sub-section (1) or (2) shall be preferred within [thirty days] of the date of order of conviction and sentence or acquittal.

The ICT Act, formed in 1973, did not provide the option of appeal to prosecution. Later, during the incumbent government’s regime, the act was amended and prosecution was allowed an appeal against acquittal.

The junior Law Minister had reportedly himself expressed disappointment over the verdict.

Five of the six charges were proved against Quader Molla, while he was acquitted in one.

Chief Coordinator of the tribunal Additional Attorney General MK Rahman said the ICT had accquitted Molla because the prosecution could not prove his involvement in the Ghatarchar massacre in Keraniganj conclusively.

Therefore, he said, the prosecution could now only appeal against this charge number 4 that related to the Keraniganj massacre.

He said the prosecution would only appeal seeking a review of that part of the verdict, possibly by taking recourse to Article 104 of the Bangladesh Constitution that assures 'complete justice'.

Rahman further said the prosecution might seek a Supreme Court order on the whole verdict after filing an appeal petition.

Ghatak Dalal Nirmul Committee Legal Affairs Editor Tuhin Ahmed said appeal could be made to lessen the punishment, but not to increase it.

Meanwhile, the defence has said they would appeal against the verdict for reduction of the life sentence handed out to Molla.

- THE GOVERNMENT IS TAKEN ABACK BY THE MASS NATIONAL PROTESTS FROM DHAKA TO CHITTAGONG TO RAJSHAHI AGAINST REZAKARS AND JAMATIS!

- The government is feeling the will and has to do this or they will be remembered for every in history as appeasers of rezakars by the secular Dhaka elite who are their default supporters. Already a senior Awami league leader was manhandled and basically thrown out of the Shahbagh protests.

This movement is the Bangladeshi version of the Arab Spring and even the Awami League knows that out of disgust the people may form another political party and the Awami League would be damaged heavily.

- The Shahbagh protests are working, Qader Mollah may face execution for the murders and rapes he carried out after all.

Quader Molla put to gardening

Authorities have assigned Jamaat-e-Islami’s Assistant Secretary General Abdul Quader Molla in gardening duties after he was convicted of crimes committed against humainity during Liberation War of Bangladesh in 1971.


International Crimes Tribunal-2 sentenced him to life in prison on Tuesday.

Molla was taken to Kashimpur prison as he was put there under rigorous imprisonment on Thursday.

He was given the duty of gardening as per physical capability advised by doctors, Kashimpur Jail Senior Jailor Mohammad Jahangir Kabir told bdnews24.com.

Molla is being kept at a general cell, he said.

Jail Superintendent Ghosh said since Molla was convicted of crimes that disqualify one from getting division in jail, all his special privileges were revoked as per the prisons rules.

“He was sent to a common cell with the dignity and dress of common inmates around 1:30pm. Now he will be enjoying the privileges the common inmates do.”

After his arrest, Molla was sent to Dhaka Central Jail on July 19, 2010, and shifted to Kashimpur Jail on June 24, 2011

This criminal is now doing hard physical labour, the other problem for him is that he is now with inmates, some of whom may have family murdered by his thugs in the 1971 war, so he will be hated and possibly even abused by them.

Teeming thousands chant ‘Hang them all’

Shahbag-Protest.jpg


1 / 2
Tens of thousands of people forgetting their caste, professional and political identities descended on Shahbagh intersection on Friday afternoon with the chant of ‘Death penalty to all war criminals’, including Abdul Quader Molla, and a ban on the politics of Jamaat-e-Islami.

The ‘grand rally’ at the intersection, called ‘Prajanma Chattar’, ended with a vow to spread the ongoing movement from Teknaf to Tetulia.

People from across the broad spectrum of society who gathered from far and wide of Bangladesh also took an oath to carry on their movement demanding death penalty for all war criminals and pledged to boycott all business and social organisations, including media outlets, of the Islamist party.

The rally organisers repeatedly reaffirmed their resolve to take their movement forward until all war criminals were handed down the capital punishment.

The protesters took oath: “The platform of the masses will spread the movement across the country from Teknaf to Tetulia untl the death penalty of the despicable Razakars, al-Badrs, genocide plotters and rapists of the 1971 [Liberation War]. The movement will continue until the politics of Jamaat-Shibir is banned. We’ve to do work so that the anti-liberation elements that had been released after the 1975 period are put before the special tribunal.”

Demanding a ban on the business, social and cultural organisations run by the war criminals, the rally was told that the Jamaat and its student wing Islami Chhatra Shibir were infiltrating into organisations by collecting funds through these institutions.

The campaigners took the oath: “We’ll demand arrest and maximum punishment to the Jamaat-Shibir leaders and activists who have threatened to push the country into a civil war.”

People including women took the oath to occupy the streets until the government outlawed the Jamaat-run business establishments -- Islami Bank, Ibn Sina, several coaching centres including Focus and Retina, media outlets including Diganta Television and the daily Naya Diganta – and revoked citizenship of their activists.

They took oath: “We’ll boycott all the educational and cultural organisations that spread anti-liberation thoughts among the children. In a word, we’ll boycott all the political, social and financial institutions.”

They further promised: “Through video clips and newspaper reports, we’ll help in bringing to trial those who threatened of civil war. We’ll not subscribe to the newspapers of the war criminals in our homes and offices.”


The rally began at Shahbagh with the announcement of a ‘Chorompotro’ or the ultimate call to hang the war criminals from the main platform for the rally erected atop a pick-up truck at 3pm.

In order to give the rally an apolitical look, at one stage all partisan banners and festoons were removed from the rally, barring those demanding capital punishment for the war criminals.
Blogger Shahidul Islam Raju read out the ‘Chorompotro’ and the national anthem was sung after that.

The spirit at the venue was infectious as people broke into the chants of “Tui Rezakar” (you are a war criminal) and the protesters stood and sang the national anthem in chorus at the rally organised by Blogger and Online Activists Network.

People in droves came to the rally venue from across the capital in a procession of vehicles and in small groups carrying the national flag, musical instruments, banners and placards.

The gathering had run as far back as to the streets up to Doel intersection, Banglamotor, Kataban and Matsya Bhaban areas from the rally venue.

Anjan Roy hosted the presentation at the main rally stage while freedom fighter Nasiruddin Yusuf Bachchu assisted him.

The rally was addressed by Mili Rahman, widow of Shaheed Flight Lieutenant M Matiur Rahman Bir Shrestha – one of the most valiant heroes of the Liberation War – educationist and eminent writer Prof Muhammad Zafar Iqbal, Dhaka University Vice-chancellor AASM Arefin Siddique, and freedom fighter and cultural personalities Kamal Lohani and Hasan Imam.

They shouted slogans standing at the main platform demanding execution of the Razakars and the ‘war criminals’.

Overwhelmed by their Liberation War spirit, Mili Rahman said, “Our new generation is awake. No-one can stop us. It’s that Ekattor when we librated the country. Today you, the youngsters, will build a country free of Razakars and Shibir.”

Kamal Lohani also vowed to ensure trial of the war criminals. “Today the people have stood up.”

Later, Imran H Sarker, a lead organiser of the demonstration that began shortly after Jamaat leader Molla was sentenced to life in prison for war crimes on Tuesday, administered the oath to thousands of people, mostly youths.

Earlier, he announced a four-point charter of demands. The demands are: all the war criminals have to be given capital punishment, the Jamaat-Shibir politics has to be banned, those who threatened civil war have to be identified and put on trial, and all the forces which rehabilitated the war criminals have to be brought to trial.

To the dismay of many, the ICT-2 on Tuesday awarded Molla life in prison for his crimes against humanity during the Liberation War in 1971. People of all strata and various organisations, including the socio-political and cultural ones, said they expected death penalty for him.

Outraged by the ‘too little’ punishment, cultural and political activists and youngsters, mostly university students and bloggers, whipped up protests on the social media and blogs. People started converging at Shahbagh in the heart of the capital since Tuesday afternoon soon after the delivery of the verdict.

They then grew in numbers and have been keeping candle-lit vigil for the last four nights.

The protest spirit also spread to other parts of Bangladesh and voices called for hanging the Jamaat-e-Islami stalwart.

Different professional bodies, pro-liberation forces, students and commoners staging the sit-in demanding Molla’s execution on Wednesday called the mass gathering for Friday.

Responding to the call for institution of a people’s court at the heart of the capital, people started gathering at the intersection and its surrounding areas to join the rally in small protest procession from Friday morning.

The gathering covered Kataban, Shishu Park, BSMMU and Fine Arts Faculty of Dhaka University by 1pm and the attendance swelled ever since.

The organisers said that the rally was called to give the campaign an ‘apolitical’ shape.

The streets turned into a huge human sea by 3pm. An official of the Detective Branch (DB) of police said that some 250,000 people joined the mass rally.

The pro-liberation activists shared the ABC of asserting the right to get justice shouting creative slogans.

“Q for Quader Molla/Tui Rezakar” (you are a war criminal), S for Sayedee/ Tui Rezakar, M for Mujaheed/ Tui Rezakar, N for Nizami/ Tui Rezakar, G for Ghulam Azam/ Tui Rezakar,” they shouted at the rally.

The Jamaat had opposed Bangladesh's independence from Pakistan in 1971. The party had sided with Pakistani troops during the war when officially three million people were killed, and the fundamentalist party allegedly masterminded the murders of the country's leading intelligentsia including professors, doctors and journalists.

Teeming thousands chant

Why would Bangladesh need an Arab Spring .... Are we not a democracy? Who or what are these morons protesting against? Is it the state? Is it the judiciary? This is prime example of mass media lead manipulation of uneducated sheep.

So ICT will change laws just because a the mob demands it. The prosecution will have the same level of appeal as the defense!!!! Is there any sanity left ...... BAL morons are turning every barometer of civilisation upside down....
 
.
This is the 5th day.

I hope to see a protest soon in Sylhet city (I am from Sylhet).

These protests are apolitical and AL leaders are basically banned from them now and the BNP has officially endorsed them.


5 hours ago...
