Undoubtedly, every victims of crime deserves sympathy and every criminal deserve punishment for the crimes they have committed. Indeed we are in a position to offer our supports and symparhy to the victims of 1971. But unfortunately, none of us are in a position to bring the real criminals to justice.
The tribunal that has been set by the regime in power in Bangladesh has so far failed to convince the nation that they are actually trying to bring the real war criminals to justice. Most of none partisan citizens like my self are in doubt about the international crime tribunal and the intention of the government.
Many of us feel that the govt has created a trap in the name of international war crime tribunal to punish a group of people they dislike.
Since the present government came into power, are we convinced that the judiciary has been functioning independently? There are many verdict given by the HC and SC which are clear evidence of partisanship judgement in favour of the government. Under these circumstances, it is most likely that many innocent people will become victim of the trap that has been created.
Unfortunately, our nation is blindly divided into two group, one is AL and the other is BNP. When BNP comes into power, they promote their own judges, Police Officers, Attorney General etc. The same happends when AL comes into power, which is why, it is not going to be a fair trial. In fact, this trial will create a ground for another trial and our vengeance politics will continue. The only option we have to get the internal and international approval of a fair trial if we can hire some international Judges from ICC, The Hague or Nnuremberg.
