Speedy trial tribunal and Bangabandhu murder case


I am thankful to the present government as they have taken drastic measures in order to prevent crime and also for the "speedy trial tribunal". I appreciate that the cases, which use to be under heaps of dust are now being brought to justice though we are unaware of their executions.

Late, but I think that government has somewhat realised, that anti-social acts cannot bring them votes nor will the citizens of Bangladesh will tolerate any such acts of violence for long. But, I would like to know what our law ministry is planning for a particular case, which was in proceedings during the past Awami League government. Why, not the killers of Bangabandhu, and his family are not yet brought to justice. When the recent government is capable maintaining law and order why they are delaying the verdict of this assassination, which has been the greatest spot on the history of our nation.

I demand as a citizen of a democratic country that these ruthless outlaws should be dragged in front of justice as soon as possible and given the punishment they deserve. This will not only set an example but also we, as a nation will come out of the era of darkness, which engulfed us on the 15th of August 1975.
