Not only the massacres carried out in July-August during the student-public uprising, but all the misdeeds committed by the Awami League in the past 15 years will be tried, said Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus.
He made this statement in his address to the nation on the occasion of the 100th day of the interim government on Sunday (November 17).
At this time, he said, countless people have been disappeared, murdered during this period. We have formed a commission to investigate the disappearances. The head of the commission told me that they have received information about 1,600 disappearances until October. They estimate that this number will exceed 3,500.
He also said that many are afraid to file complaints about disappearances with the commission.
Assuring those who are afraid, Dr. Yunus said, you should file your complaints with the commission without hesitation. No one has the ability to lay hands on you again.
In addition, the Chief Adviser also said that we have taken the initiative to prosecute those involved in the disappearances, murders, and the July-August genocide not only in the country, but also in the international court.
