awami league drags bangladesh chief adviser to international criminal court over 'genocide', 15000 more complaints soon

Dhaka: Amid the ongoing tensions between Awami League and Bangladesh’s interim government, a leader of Sheikh Hasina’s party has filed a complaint against Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus at the International Criminal Court.

Anwaruzzaman Chowdhury, an Awami League leader and former Mayor of Sylhet, filed the complaint against Yunus and 61 others, under Article 15 of the Rome Statute at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Netherlands.

Apart from Yunus, these 62 accused include all members of Yunus's cabinet and the student leaders of the Anti-Discrimination Alliance.

Chowdhury said that the workers of Awami League have been victims of "genocide" in the country after the fall of Sheikh Hasina's government. Bangladesh's PM Sheikh Hasina had stepped down from post and fled the country on August 5 amid growing pressure from the anti-quota protestors and the country's military.

"From 5th to 8th August, in the name of student movement in Bangladesh, all the leaders and workers of Bangladesh Awami League and its various affiliates, Hindus, Christians, Buddhists living in Bangladesh and the police force of Bangladesh have been victims of brutal genocide and crimes against humanity', Anwaruzzaman Chowdhury said in a video message posted on Awami League's verified Facebook page.

"In this regard, we have submitted all the facts and evidence to ICC", he added.

About 800 pages of documents have been attached to the original complaint, according to the video message.

Extensive preparations are underway to file 15,000 more such complaints in the ICC very soon, he said. The affected persons will file complaints one by one, it added.
