The trial judge of Judges killing case has signed and sent the death warrants for the immediate execution of the death sentences of the seven topmost leaders and killers of Jamiate Mujahideen Bangladesh, the Islamic militant organisation on Thursday afternoon after receiving the confirmation of death sentences in death reference hearing.
The death sentences of the convicted for killing of two judges of Jhalakati courts now may be carried out in different jails of the country after fixation of the place, date and time by the Ministry of Home Affairs, related sources said.
Earlier, on Thursday, the Additional District and Sessions Judge Court here signed the execution warrant and sent the same to the jail authorities here.
The same local Court on May 29 awarded death sentence to seven kingpins of militant outfit Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), including its chief Shaikh Abdur Rahman, in the killing case of two judges-Jagannath Pandey and Sohel Ahmed. Registrar of the High Court sent the records of the verdict of the sensational killing case to the local court for signing the execution warrant after the High Court had confirmed the death penalty of the seven JMB leaders.
JMB leaders Shaikh Abdur Rahman, Siddiqul Islam alias Bangla Bhai, Ataur Rahman Sunny, Abdul Awal, Iftekhar Hasan Al Mamoon, Khaled Saifullah and Asadul Islam Arif (absconding) were awarded death sentence for the killing of the two Senior Assistant Judges in Jhalakati in a bomb attack on November 14 last year.
Gee, what a well written article.
Interesting. Interesting site. Thanks for posting.
That's an interesting term, they were "awarded" the death sentence. If that's their idea of an award, I'd hate to see what they do for punishment!
Do I detect a hint of sarcasm? :-)
